| Today at Pet pourri I saw this fish! It looked similar to a barracuda, but a little thicker, and meaner looking..... from what they told me it is an awesome carnivore... and the fastest freshwater fish out there! I couldnt believe they are sellin these guys.... what a rare super cool fish! Comes with a price tag though.... think 79.99  \

I was there Tuesday.
The young man who was maintaining the tanks mentioned they are planning on a 2400 G tank. |

| One of my favorite fish! I almost got one instead of my Cuda, but they are more vicious and would dine on my Corys and Clown Loaches Better to have many species in my tank than just one fish  The African Pikes get nippy in groups under 3, so it's best to get either one or 3+, so that's the only downfall to them. They get pretty large after about 8 months, though! Beautiful colors... |
