Do the fish get changed/reclassified a lot? I always use pikecichlid.com for reference but it looks like a lot of that information hasn't been updated in years. They have rosemariae and tigrina listed as Lugubris.

Crenicichla are so confusing.

I'm pretty sure that rosemariae is classified now as a lacustris group pike. I might be wrong on tigrina but I'm fairly sure they are not lugubris group.

+1. Pretty sure they are not in Lugubris either. No need to be technical though, haha. I was going to do a Reticulata, a Lacustris, and a Acutirostris group, but decided to stick with these two for 'simplicity'. Haha
 
Cr. cincta ... anything with the common name blue tiger is just all sorts of awesomesauce.

No dwarf love eh PP?? Viva la Crenicichla heckeli!!!!
 
Instead of starting a new thread, I thought I would just ask here since a few others have also. Is there any recent news concerning Creni. Rosemariae floating around in the hobby? I have been reading about them for a few months but there's not many recent articles about them. I would definitely devote a tank to a pair, or even one if i could get my hands on one. Tigrina are awesome too!

I voted for Marms, particularly rio trombetas, but cincta come in a close second.


After much thought - . . - - - finally voted marmorata !
the Lugubris group is most problemic of all, lents at the top also.
Cincta is a personal fav too - so many choices!!!!!!
 
If I could get a nice group of Trombetas or Rosemaries.....They would definitely pull me back into keeping Crens.

Cr. Rosemarie are a very cool pike but my vote went for lents. I love the way they look.
