What was sold to me as a "Straghatti"(think that is how it is spelled)i know believe to be a Bellycrawler.My Pike scoots around(when he does) on his stomach all the time.It also has the Vertical lines going down its body like the Bellycrawler.I am kinda disapointed as i really wanted 1 of the true "Monster"Pikes,from what i have read these Pikes only get up to 6 inches,is this correct??Any help is really appreciated!!!Thanks!!:confused:
 
Sometimes my Pikes stripes are more noticable when he eats,but he does scoot around on his Belly most of the time.Its hard to say with this Pike,he hides all the time.I finally got him to eat,but i have to hand feed him in his rock.I hope that i am wrong and he is what i was told he is.At 10 bucks it seemed like a good deal.

you ment STRIGATA...

At least they name it, shops here just say PIKES now or have it wrongly named anyway to jack up the price.

Thanks Taz,i have been going to this lfs for almost 30 yrs,they used to be 1 of the best in the state!!But the store has been handed down to the Daughters and it seems all they want is to make money.The sales people all blame the dealers for not sending the right fish,but i say if the store knows its not the right name of the fish,why try to sell it under the wrong name??No morales!!!:screwy:
 
most of the shops around here just label Pikes as Pike cichlid. You'd think being a shop owner and all you'd find out what kind of pike you have before you put a price on it.
 
I don't even have pikes in my LFS....so you guys are lucky just to have them!! haha!! Sounds like a belly crawler bro, as they are one of the most common pikes beside xingu I and venezuela...both of which are active open water swimmers...;)
 
Yeah,like Peanut said.I have left out the fact also that i have had to travel to aquire my Pikes,so i guess it wouldn't be my LFS then would it?More like a LDFS:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
