C. Lenticulata

I can't remember which thread it was where someone was asking me to post pics of my lenticulata, so I started another thread..These are the only so-so pics I've been able to get so far...they really seem to have colored up in the last few days...David

Very nice Good job with them.

These are the same fish I have. I don't think they are lenticulata.

Nice looking pikes but I would agree that they don't look like Lentuiculata. Have said that the same species of pike can loook totally different depending upon where it is caught so thses could be a local variant. These fish are great, i just wish they were more prevalent in the hobby.

just waking up so I haven't read all of that link, but i did find this last night:

Is it possible that the one's from Rio orinoco look different?? David
p.s. so my lenticulata are not lenticulata, but strigata, and my strigata are something else as well

hahaha, funny how that works out right.....

 

[DavidWpg]

to my eyes, the fish I have look like the fish in this book labelled as lenticulata...

David, Here is a link to Marks thread with the pics of his Lent/Strigata. Appear to be the same species to me. Yours look great!

Just how many different species of pikes do you have? I am starting to think you are one major Cren. Hoarder, along with Mt. Pike of course.
