Wow, that's a large order. There are at least 3 dozen different species. How about I give you a reserach tool and point you in the right direction.

It would be easier to list the dwarfs then list the non dwarfs
THESE ARE DWARFS-
-C. compressiceps
-C. notophthalmus
-C. regani
-C. urosema
I think there is more, but you would be hard pressed to find them.

Aye, there are A LOT more...
. Crenicichla wallacii (bugga...i know thats not spelled right) is another dwarf that isn't seen very much. Then you got all the variants within the species depending on location...it gets complicated. 
Some of the hotter, relatively easy to find pikes right now are Xingu I (orange pike), marmorata, Tapajos I (flame pike), Tapajos II (cobra pike), cincta (tiger pike) & sp. Venezuela. Granted, they are not common and will cost you a pretty penny but are available if you look around. Other's that are seen here and there that are more difficult to find are lenticulata, Xingu III (emperor pike) & lucustris.
Good luck!
Good luck!

I've kept them before. They have a regani shape with notophthalmus markings minus the spikey dorsal fin. I suspect they are a geographical variant of regani.
The base color on the ones I seen looked very pale(grey- almost white- almost sickly looking), but the fish were plump and healthy. Were yours pale looking?
