Never heard of 'jewel' pike cichid..... anyone??? Maybe Cr. saxatillus?

I'm guessing it is some species from the Saxatilis group (spangled pikes- maybe they are jewel pikes too?). The one time I heard that name being used to identify a pike, it was Crenicichla lepidota. I'd would do a image search on that and see if it looks like that.

Did you order it from TFD?

 

[focker]

yes

So did you ever figure out what it is? You should post a pic of it.
