Belly crawler pike cichlid

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have no experience with pike cichlids. I’ve been on google and the pike cichlids that I think would work are the Lepidota or the Belly crawler.
If anyone knows of another that might work better please let me know.

Dwarf pikes will definitely not be able to eat the giant danios. As far as aggression, I would rather put a bellycrawler or saxatilis type (lepidota, etc.) with a GT.

I would at least double the giant danios.

Does anyone know a good place to get a belly crawler pike cichlid?
