unknown pike at the pet store

[Catfish Pownage 63]

ok so i was at the LFS yesterday and i saw this pike and would like to know what it is because i have a extra 75g that i found in the garage and i wanted this fish to put in the 75 depending on what it was
he was about 7.5in. also sorry about the cruddy pic but this is the only thing i got

ok this is even more cruddy than what i thought

Bad pic but judging from the coloring and patterning it looks like some kind of saxitillis pike. If this is the case, a 75g should be just fine for it. Get a better pic and one of us can tell you for sure.

ok sounds good also he seemed to have a ladder like pattern on his back but i will do some further research and see if i can figure out what he is
also would you have any guess(es) as to what species this maybe

From that pic, I would guess sveni, but it is just a shot in the dark.

i think that maybe it
but i'll continue doing research
i actually played with him for a while he was trying to attack my finger when i dragged it on the front side of the tank
