another ident pike question.

got this on ebay with 2 gars. I wanted the gars, free shipping after that so I figure throw in a pike. here is what was advertise for 6.99. I figure it be fun to see since I already paid for shipping. 6.99 is feeder fish if need be(btw no other description then cichlid pike), came in at 1.5 now little over 2. looks from what I can tell a belly crawler. but after 2 weeks in my quarantine tank I noticed today its not the fish in the picture, here is my fish, from what I saw by simply looking at pike pictures on google, looks like a 2 spots pike lepidota. which apparently get a lot more aggressive when they older than bellycrawler. so help me identify this..so I know what to expect going forward.

I noticed from the thousands of other id pike questions here.. it could also be an alta? saxatilis? but sax seems to have sub species too. I am a total noob with pikes and cichlid in general..so I am probally speaking out of my as#@$@. I just wait to see what the panel has to say.

Pattern looks Cr. lucius ... but I don't see the golden side scalene pattern.

thanks darth, but I google Lucius, and it looks more like a long cichlid, while mine is more rounded like a torpedo, its longer and more round. that's is one reason while I tried to show the pic a little head on view. let me see if I can get a side, view, hes quick, camera always out of focus because he moves around too much. here is another angle of the front.

no one, well at this point I think it some sort of saxa
