Strigata Pike

True strigata are rare. Unfortunately occasionally they're labeled as sp. Venezuela as Strigata since most people don't know how to ID pikes for crap lol. Someone here was selling a "strigata" but really it was a Venezuela not too long ago... Always be careful if you're buying a pike labeled strigata

Thanks for the quick reply. I am planning to buy two. What should I look for ? They are labeled as small strigata pikes
this is a pair of adults. They have a ocellated humeral blotch. However I'm fairly certain that what you're going to be ending up buying are Venezuela... How much are they going for and where are you getting them? Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app
Yeah I'm 99% certain they're Venezuela but 2.99 is a good deal for any pike... They're really pretty pikes the only people that get them usually know what they are. Idk what's with importers labeling vens as strigata...

They're gonna be vens. If not they'll display a humeral blotch may or may not have color on it. But they're probably gonna be vens... Lots of people in the past will post up pics of their "strigata"... haha at that price I mean come on... For 2.99 sounds like a Colombian fish... But maybe buy it and prove me wrong

Well let's see but I just checked with LFS and there size is almost 2 inches.
Will they survive with larger fish ?
