Hey guys! Here are some updated pictures of my newest pike Crenicichla cf. iguapina. She's colored up a bit and now has a nice orange belly and a greenish tint on her cheeks. She's fattening up a lot too, since she is finally accepting pellets.

I got her at SharkAquarium about a month ago. They had one more at the time...another female I think.

What’s the common name for these guys!

As far as I know, there is no common name. Crenicichla iguapina was only described in 2006, and only a few have made their way into the hobby. Vin Kutty helped to indentify the species as Crenicichla cf. iguapina.
