Identify this fish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Red Pike also known as Atabapo
Okay..I am planning to add a new fish to my current tank with 10" BD ray and 10" blue base crossback back arowana..BTW my sting ray is very aggressive and has already killed a 6" Frontosa and 4" flagtail by suffocating them to death..so I am avoiding bottom dwellers..I have ordered 12" indo tiger for the tank so he can't suffocate it..I wanna add a red pike or a snake head..any suggestions?

Pikes are a very aggressive cichlid, but id only add one at plus 8 inches.. as for snakeheads I have no experience but I imagine it’d fit in fine unless it’s a redline
 
Okay..my tank temperature is 28 constant..which type of pike would you advice..I have never had one
 
Go with the abadapo.. relatively not that expensive and as shown above, can hang with more aggressive tankmates
 
sounds like a new tank is in your future-
