Cool..I didn't think you'd be able to get pikes out in Singapore. :headbang2

I did have a couple of lucius in my tank but it started eating everything.

I usually just net them out of a river by a local beach.

In a tank I had previously there were two pikes, 4 walleye, a couple rock bass and some bullheads. Eventually the pikes were the only ones left.
I remember one time I only threw in one feeder and they both grapped it at the same time and started wrestling each other for it...like how dogs jerk there heads back and forth. So cool!!

This set-up at the time was too pink for my taste, so I took out the gravel and added sand and live plants. Looks much better now.
