So after my last post where the firemouth idea got reamed. i figured y not add 3 tinfoil barbs also... and a few feeder goldfish. so so far the pike picked alittle on the firemouths the first day but so far today ive seen him do a few wall to wall cruises around the tank with no signs of trying to kill anything. aka im really excited. i almost forgot how beautiful he was since he was in his cave all day long. so her are some of the pictures i snapped.

What kind of pike is that?
 
from what ive heard from others on this forum. a cr. lacustris.
 
i got it in nj from a store Pet Goods. its like a petsmart but i think there are only a few in the nj area and they carry some decent fish. got him at about 4 inches and now hes about 10-11.
 
nice one. i would think firemouths would work pretty well for that
 
Cool beans man! I'm glad that they ARE working for you. Pikes can be pretty particular about their tankmates sometimes...haha. Thats great that its making him more comfortable. Lacustris are gorgeous pikes indeed! :D
 
nice pike
