Here's another showing the Atabapo. There are a number of cichlids including Cr. sp. "Atabapo II" at the 4:20 mark.

Nice.

I wonder why there are few marmorata in the hobby when every video I've seen suggest they are plentiful and everywhere.

WOW! Very informative and beautiful videos. It was great to see the pikes interacting with each other and their fry. Rearing fry for a year is serious parenting. People can get some truly authentic and breathtaking aquascaping ideas from these videos too. Thanks for posting! Maybe I'll watch them again with my wife to better explain the need for several more larger tanks.

That was awesome Mark! Thanks! Loved every second of it.

Check this one out too, the Crenicichla punctata with the Gynogeophagus are awesome! LOL

Oh man I loved all the videos! I just got home from work a little bit ago so watching these videos with a cold beer definitely has helped mellow me out! Btw the behavior of the punctata in Peanuts video is similar to that of C. missioneira I observed in Northern Uruguay.

I enjoyed this video too. It would be nice to mimic this in a home aquarium.

Very cool video!!!
The gymno is not a gymnogenys...it's a labiatus!

Thanks Felipe! I thought it was a labiatus, but I am still learning my gymnos.

Nice
Did I see lemon tetras swimming around in the vid? I know next to nothing about pikes(just stalking this forum ) but I would assume pikes are predatory and will eat small fish like tetras?
