Crenicichla sp.
Animalia›Chordata›Actinopterygii
A predatory cichlid genus from South America with a highly elongated, pike-like body built for ambush hunting, featuring a large mouth and aggressive disposition toward smaller fish. Many species reach 8–16 inches and require very large tanks (75+ gallons); they are best kept as a single specimen or pair with large, robust tankmates they cannot swallow.
