Just picked this guy up today and I am wondering what he/she ACTUALLY is. It was just labelled as "spotted pike cichlid"

thats a good price for that fish. just be aware that they are very susceptible to hith when they get larger so it is important to make sure their water quality is pristine.

Shoot, thats awesome!!! I paid more than that for each of mine. Great score!!!

BTW. . . they can get HITH right away, they don't need to be adults. Keep that water TIP TOP!! Low pH, super soft, very little dissolved solids. Mine got HITH, and I am currently fighting it trying to reverse it. Rather difficult to say the least.
