Streaming fins

[js77]

Do any male pikes get streaming fins like alot of other new world cichlids do?

My female's dorsal extends half-way to the end of her tail. I imagine males would be even more pronounced. Anyone have any pics?

what type of pike is that ???? i personaly have never seen it but some one like p-p might have ?

 

[js77]

She is some type of saxatilis pike. Not positive on the ID - never will be.

Yeah, streamers are pretty common on pikes, especially on the Saxatilis pikes. Not completely sure about males, but as you pointed out, females definately get them.

Our 13" male atabapo red (sp. lugubris) has really nice 'streamers' on his dorsal & anal fins. Our 12" male red tapajos doesn't! only some Pikes get the streamers - both sexes!
