Pike ID!

Hi Guys/Girls,

I just bought this new pike but I don't know what kind he is, he's around 10-11 inches. How much do you think he is worth?

Thanks
Alex

Lenticulata. Great fish! Yours looks awesome! They are territorial and aggressive but don't cause fights just to fight. One of my favorite pikes

Doesn't look as nice as most lents, but the price you paid was fair.

It's not nice? I just put him in the tank when I took this photo.

$80 for that size is good. Rapps has them for that size at $95.

Lents get 12-14", and can cause considerable chaos inside of a tank. Not sure the size of your tank, but I hope you have plenty of dithers. Silver Dollars work great, but they'll need to be large.

You'll need to wait a week or two before all the color comes in, give some place to hide from the light but not hide from you and your fish will relax quickly.

Good luck, and congrats on a great fish!
