Looks like a johanna to me. Could also be a Xingu III but I am not an expert.

Well, you got part of that right...the not an expert part...haha.:ROFL:

Def. not johanna, as its got a humeral blotch near the caudual fin, which is void in johanna. Doubt its xingu III either. Gorgeous pike though! Can you get any STILL shots or it? Like with a CAMERA? The video was all jerky and going all over the place, and barely really focused on the pike for very long. I guess if you got a video of JUST the pike, that would be great. Love the aquascapin and clean look! Superbly done! ;)
 
I will try tonite. Thanx penut power I appriciate it.
 
OK was able to get some here. These are about the best I can do. The thick bar from the nose to the tail does get darker when he/she's chasing around the silver dollars and the pike gets along with my oscar well. Thanx for viewing and trying to ID. If you need more pics I can try tonite. Thanx again peanut_power and anyone else who responds

Well looking at the pike id sticky it looks like a venezuela. When it was a juvie the face was covered with those little spots and they ran in lines down the top of the body. Correct me if I am wrong
 
I like pike and I do say it is a Venenzuala. Your pike seems to like the Oscar as a friend. You have nice tank.
 
That is probably the best lookin sp. 'venezuela' I have ever seen!! Wow! Almost makes me wanna say its not a ven...haha. Its possible its sp. 'lugubris'....I don't have an aqualog, so that kinda hinders me to my memory and the internet...haha.

Either way, that is a BEEEAUTIFUL pike! Gorgeous! Drool factor indeeders! ;) I guess normally we see male vens. and not to many female...haha.
 
wow thanxB for the replys and the compliments they are very appreciated by both of us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
