First pics I've taken of fish for quite a while. If you're not familiar with south american pike cichlids, this is one of the variants. I have a group of 8.

Crenicihla Lenticulata is the actual name. Like with many other pike variants, they occupy several bodies of water, leading to differences in appearance based on locale. Some are outstanding, some are not so much. I've yet to find out for sure exactly where this group is from.
