Yea its a nice pike but the aggression from mine is over the top. I like the tempermant of the pikes ive had in the past better.
 
Great to hear. They are mellow to other fish once they are in n a stable bond. I keep mine with bahia oscars and severums and they get along great.
 
Mine are not mellw at all they just dont fight each other anymore, but they are very aggressive to other fish. Are you basing this info on the one pair you have now or have you had other cinctas.
 
I keep all my lugubris pikes with tankmates. I find the key is to keep them with fish that occupy a completely different niche.

My lents I kept with Angels and geos with chalceus for top water.

Tapajos with angels currently. I've had them with caquetaia spectabilis before.

Zebrina with cichla and hoplarchus.

They hated CA cichlids however.
