Man, look at the color on that thing!! Awesome!
 
Anthony she's cool, way cool. I've never owned a Pike that I couldn't get on Flake food, just have to be patient and let the fish around them teach them how its done.

cool!
what is that geophagus like fish in the first picture? i like those but can never remembe their names...

I think it's a sp."Rio Caroni"(?) or something closely related.
 
Thanks guys. Yea I was surprised she ate flakes, one day I was feeding the flakes to that tank and she came out and ate! So after that I try to feed them flakes once or twice a week.
Im glad you train this fish on pellets and flakes, Michael :D I still feed her frozen krills once a week. That maybe help keeps the red color on her.
Ewok, that other fish in the picture is a Guinacara sp. "rio Caroni", waiting for them to breed in this tank right now, hopefully...

here's some pictures of them for ya :popcorn: :)
