Just thought i would trhow one more picture of my male esox at everyone.. hes around 10 inches and deathly afraid of my 3" paroon shark.. who is really aggressive for some reason.. The esox will get huge but is a giant pussy cat..

Thats an amazing looking fish what is the latin name.

Rhamphochromis esox.. The largest growing Rhamp. that there is. They are from Lake malawi and are true predators.. None of the Mbuna stuff for me : )
 
Very ATF like actually.. the only difference is they have big lips as opposed to the very minimal lip structure found on the atf.. they can and do cut feeders in half with no problem..
 
Weird looking, but it looks like a real monster!

They arent agressive at all. sometimes they dont even bother going after feeders.. weird indeed, they would rather just chill and wait for their pellets
