Crenicichla lenticulata ?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
You may be surprised at their attitudes, I got mine in a 180 with a 13" jag that is no joke, and a 8" Umbee with some attitude...the Pike will not back down from anything and when you drop food into the tank....well let's just say it get's real intense for a few minutes... ;) Careful....

Which atabapo, 1 or 2? What size tank? I love my lents bro and they tagteam anything that messes w either of them. I have a small wc pair of hoplarchus now, but I used to have a big one and my atabapo 1s killed it.

Tank is 6 x 2 x 2 , they are the atabapo 1 i think
 
My tank is 6 x 2 x 2.5 and two lents dominated it. They were both males, but always patrolled the tank together and tag teamed anything that so much as looked at them the wrong way. I loved them, but I had to get rid of them. They were causing a lot of anxiety and nervousness in my other fish. My big psittacus, about 12" or so, was constantly flaring at them. They would in turn flare back.

If you get them, make sure you have plenty of hiding spaces, and watch them real close. ;)
 
Si. Yes. Da. Oui. Hai. Absofrikenlutely.
 
I got 6 of them and had to subsequently move out fish one at a time from their tank since they were just THAT aggressive. Picture 6 fish all attacking the same poor victim.

I put a larger RTM in there and it immediately went and jaw-locked with one of the lents. Immediately, the other 5 came out and started messing the RTM up until I had to pull the RTM out. Then they tore up the 4 Chocolate Ciclids, a Hoplarchus, and now the only thing that can be kept in them is the ORIGINAL Hoplarchus I had before I got the lents.

They are mean sob's from my experience. Like a gang. Keep a close eye on them and good luck!
