Cute little guy.
 
it was this pike or a royal pleco, or a RTC.....never had this pike before, so i got um
 
Beautiful looking sp. 'venezuela'!!! Normally they are mislabed as strigata. ;) Finding true strigata is a treat, as they are generally less common and more attractive as adults! :D

Keep us updated! They are grrrreat fish! :D

how can you tell the difference between the two?
 
Looks like my old Venezuela when he was a little guy. I bought him labeled as Strigata too. Be prepared for a very fast growing glutton! They are great fish.
 
my johanna (same group) is already 6 inches and i bought it at 2 inches like a couple months ago.
