Ok, so I wasn't planning on getting one (you know how that goes). I was picking up two 10-12 inch peacock bass and the guy really wanted me to take his pike cichlid too. I really didn't want another mouth to feed (and poop in my tank) but the guy is really cute and the bass seem to like him.

I came to this section to see what he was and was overwhelmed with the different varieties. So what is he?

ok, I think it's a crenicichla johanna...
 
Sad for my sake, I do know its a female, but not a pro at proper IDs yet;)

Someone on here will definitely have an ID for you within a few hours or sooner! She's a LOOKER!!!! How big is she?
 
it's about 8"
 
the mor I watch her the more I like her.

She swims with the bass a lot and sometimes turns and bumps into the monocs like she's playing with them, she has a lot of personality.

I'll have to take my video camera to work and get some video of her...
 
Johanna. For sure. Very cool pike.
