I just came across and bought a Venezuelan Pike. Its like 6 inches and I am enjoying it a LOT. After doing some research I have discovered he will get Much larger and probably not be a good fit for the group in 180. I have Mammon, Severum, Black Belt, Vejia, Clown Loatche's and Lots of different Pleco's.

I have bin reading but its confusing me a lil. What I am wondering is this. Is there a Medium size Pike available that has a good temperament (low aggression) and Also is as colorful as possible? I love the Atabapo's but again, to large for me. I think I have read that the "saxatilis" might be a good choice?' I guess I am asking which one or two should I start looking into?

PS - If you got a lead on where some are currently available - That would be Great!

Thanks, Arkangel77
 
Inirida are frequently popping up. Check freshwater exotics they had some. Saxatilis check wetspot they get them in a few times a year usually
 
thank you - for the help and info
 
Yea I have a sax. Group pike who I'm assuming is done growing too much at 6-7" and it is one of the most peaceful cichlids I've ever owned, if your other fish aren't bite sized that is and he is the only Pike in his tank so that helps. Colours are a little subdued but some nice gold speckling along the lateral line.

Not sure if you can ship but send me some Pics and Info if you can.

PS - I have located a Inirida III and am waiting on a Pic. If It looks anything like some of the Pics I saw, I am for sure Interested. Dose anyone know what Max SIze of a Initida III is?
