I thought that i read somewhere that some pf the pike cichlids go with the geos and satans. i was wondering if anyone had any first hand experience with this?
 
it depends what kind of pike. i have a sveni that's fairly peaceful. he's in with a jurupari among other SA cichlids. i'd imagine that dwarf pikes would work well with eartheaters
 
I wouldn't have a problem buying them from you. I just can't do that extra shipping charge. My wife gets pissed about what I buy now. Nevermind shipping. Ugh
 
How about these pikes. Maybe someone with some knowledge can chime in on this guys.

C. Regani
C. sp. Bolivia Citrus Pike
C. Proteus
C. Notophthalmus
C. cf. Menesezi
C. Geayi
C. Britskii



Thanks
 
You aren't going to find the bolivian citrus pikes, they were only imported once and only one person has them left from that importation.

Regani would be your best bet on your list, the most common dwarf and the calmest.

Noto's would do better with their specific blackwater water conditions.

Proteus would probably be the second best, they stay small and aren't insanely aggressive. The menesezi might work, but I'd really keep an eye on it. I'd avoid the last two.
