Ha!!! Thats gonna be TOUGH!!! Only one person has gotten them in, Oliver Lucanus. It was tough for him to do so, and I doubt he will be doing it again, probably ever. They WERE NOT cheap either. If you can find tigrina and are able to afford them, DO NOT pass them up!! LOL! Sell ALL your fish, your kidney, whatever, just don't pass them up!!
many species of crenicichla have been described but aren't being imported you may get lucky and some one may import them but alot of these pikes just simply aren't seen
as i import had heads up on these there were 15 available from germany which had been imported but due to other commitments didn`t look at my emails! 
and sent one back for as many as i could get but well was over a week late and well you can imagine how i was when read that NOT HAPPY!! and nothing since, money not an issue I WANT THIS FISH!!! lol

Patience is the key though. Might be a LONG time, but they will become available again. Noone thought they would become available in the first place, and now they are in peoples tanks! 
i know of 1 person that has small one that got it from same place in germany but no more! 
have saving funds for these so what turns up i`m having them, but will settle for my special ladies johanna and xingu`s crackin fish and personalities to match and great with rays. 
can`t beet that?

I had my $1500 all lined up to buy a pair but there were 2 problems.
1. Oliver ended up selling all of them to Japan.
2. Oliver only brought in males.
Talk about a dream being shattered!!
