Really nice tank - I like the red background, sets it off nicely

yeah i like it to but it takes away alot of my fishes color so as soon as i figure out how to get the paint off i'll proly change it to black or maybe like a dark purple/blue so w/the lights off it looks black but w/lights on it's blue
ya got any suggestions?

How do you find the dwarf pike with the glass cats? I was thinking about a pair of dwarf pikes for when i get the 170 gallon set up but was worried about possible aggression toward some of the medium sized fish i have.

BTW nice fish you have there

hi catfish

[/QUOTE]How do you find the dwarf pike with the glass cats?

not to bad i mean the male can be a pain but he hasn't killed or hurt any of my fish,i even have corys in there the only fish that really takes a beating is the female but she must like it coz this morning i caught her sneaking up on the male and took a nice shot at his tail lol i named them ike and tina

anyway they seem to practice their ambushing skills alot by hiding in plants and slowly cruising towards a fish and then take a weak strike at it no harm is ever done as far as i can tell.you should give'em a try i can't complain this is proly the most peacful cichlid tank i've ever setup.

Hmmm,well i might just try some when i get the tank sorted,if i can find any,pike cichlids are quite rare in UK lfs and dwarfs are even rarer,the last ones i saw were £40 for the pair.

not sure what that equates to in US dollars but i saw them at an lfs for 30$ each i got mine from tangledupincichlids.com the owner jeff rapps actually oversold when i place my order and had to sell off 1 of his breeding pairs to me
