hello im kinda new to pikes ive had a atabapo 2 for 8 months now and on the weekend got a very large bonded pair of lenticulata .
i keep rays and ive been looking for something differnt.everybody keeps boaring old arowanas with their rays and those are not for me.im loving how the pikes look with the rays. i want to find some real nice colorfull ones i dont know much about the species also except i have seen some pretty kickass colorfull ones and would like some help finding them.

does anybody know where to get some nice sized ones or will i have to grow all of them?

and can you guys post some pictures of the nicest pikes so i can see what everybodys opinions are

thanks
 
You can usually find some decent sized pikes on Aquabid. They also come up occasionally on the marketplace here on MFK. John (Snookn on here) gets some large ones from time to time as well, you might check with him.
 
Check with Oliver Lucanus at Below Water. He is in Canada and gets some nice pikes in.
 
i would rather eat poop than deal with that guy

Well, belly up to the table, since I believe he is THE source for Crenicichla in your country.
