Do you already have the knife? If not it could still be viable other wise its time to consider something else
They're great fish (I enjoy mine immensely) so you just have to pro/con between the two, if your going for a African tank then it's out but Imo you should keep what you like and if you really want a pike then you now have an excuse to buy another tank
I have a belly crawler pike cichlid with a Delhezi and a Senegal bichir. I have no issues . The pike just claimed a territory and guards it and the bichirs do bichir things lol. My tank is a 4’ 120, but a 75 should be fine, just build a structure for the pike to claim
Here’s mine
Could go with sp belly crawler, proteus, or any from the saxatalis group. I’d only keep one pike cichlid. Would avoid dwarf piles due to their size and eventual size difference with polys.
are their any other ones that could work that stay under 12 inchs but are some what open swimmers?
