I've had this male for about a year now. He's at 6-7"

Bought a wild female for him from Jeff Rapps about three months ago. Listed as 5" but came in more like 3". She's eating well but hasn't grown much. I think she's getting into breeding mood...would be interesting to see these two in action.

glad to see she's doing well still. hopefully she'll put some size on soon. she tough enough to make the pike back down :D

I hope so too. She eats a lot so we'll see.

She does all the work marking territory and chasing other fish off and nudging the male to spawn with her....definitely a go-getter :D
 
did I say she was getting into breeding color....spawned already :D
