Couple of my pikes

That is a gorgeous lenticulata specimen. How old is it? Do you know if its male or female? Where did you get it? Do you have another thread with more pictures of your system? Sorry for the 20 questions. I'm very interested in the crenicichla family. Ive been keeping reefs for over a decade and am taking a break for a while. I'm just starting to do some research on these guys and would love to do a pair of lent's, xingu's or even marmorata's. I'd love some feedback.
Clint ~ Looking great buddy! Glad to see he is filling back in nicely for you. The cincta is looking stellar as well! Props! I need to come see your fish tanks some day fo shore! 
Its about a year and a half old now. As to gender, its a male. He got it originally from me, but I got them from wetspotcx (Grey) on aquabid. They actually still home some for sale that are the same variant I believe, which is Rio Atabapo. Here is the link to the auction:
Crenicichla lenticulata 'Rio Atabapo'
I don't want to steal any of Clints thunder, so I won't post any pictures of mine in here, but if you get a chance check out a few of the other threads in the Cren. Media Lounge. Tons of great pikes of pikes for sure!

Jer's lents look tons better than mine because he kept his fed. LOL I tried to wean off of frozen and onto pellets. After a couple months I just gave up, but it was enough to put his development behind. I hope it will take off and turn out like Jer's.
Outstanding Crenichicla !!! Both are spectacular, really good examples of their type. Thx. for the post - any more shots would be great!
