New Pickups!!!

[Hoyo12]

Just got back from the LFS with a Pike Cichlid and two new Glass Knives! The Pike is in the 60-Gallon, and very shy. So the pics of him kind of suck... any ID on him? They called him a "Golden Pike" but he looks like a Striped.
The two Knives are in a 50-Gallon Breeder with the E. humboldtii Knife (close relative of the Glass Knife) They are always together.
Pics!

Thanks. The Pike is 3-4" and the two Knives are 5-6"

Thanks.
Idk, looks like Crenicichla strigata to me. But I'm not a Pike 'expert'.
