Possible pike suggestion? 125 gal.

Better and better, and its been A LONG TIME since they've been offered...I think they are the next best thing to hot snatch!!! LOL!

would something like Cr. compressiceps be possible? or is it too small? What about any of the larger species.

those in the pics look pretty interesting though.

C. compressiceps, regani, notos. and any of the other dwarfs are pretty much out. You could go with Saxatilis pikes, like Crenicichla sveni or Crenicichla lucius. Alex (Fish Room Plus) has FOUR Crenicichla lucius, SHIPPED TO YOUR DOOR, for $60. Thats a wicked deal. If you want a smaller, yet still large, attractive pike, this is the way to go...

does that mean a belly crawler won't work either?

 

[andyourblueblood]

belly crawlers i.m.o. are much more agressive that their dwarf cousins. i say go with a pair of regani' or compreciceps. OR!, you could go with the acutirostris to me it seems like the fish to buy. they seem to be pretty hard to come by.

Did you not even read what he was gonna be putting them with? ANY of the dwarfs would pretty much be too small and probably be beaten to death or eaten.

Bellycrawler would work, but they aren't as active or as 'striking' as other pikes. Its really your call though. They are still great pikes with lots of spunk, and really to be honest with you, were my first pike I ever kept. Absolutely loved them!

go with the lucius they still get a good size, cant beat that price, and they wont end up ruling your tank with an iron fin.

 

[andyourblueblood]

oh! i thought he wanted something to go with the stuff under the line! sorry dude!

 

[Cichlaholics Anonymous]

the stuff under the line is in there now, but I'm willing to move since some are smaller/more docile than the fish on the top part of the list.

 

[andyourblueblood]

yeah now i understand im sorry again o.p. ill read more carefully from now.

No probs man, just would suck for him to getta dwarf and have it beat to death...lol.

Ruben, you should just PM Alex (Fish Room Plus) and get his four Crenicichla lucius.... They are pretty very cheap, and shipping is already included. Your pretty much just paying for the shipping, free pikes! LoL! JUST DO IT!
