Some dwarf pikes in Red Head Tapajos tank would be very nice. QH had crenicichla compressiseps a while back, don't know if there's any now.
Have seen some nice dwarf pikes every now and then in this forum too.

Can experiment with a few fishes.

The other one is Laetecara (smiling Acara), Nick is selling some of the less common ones, was very tempted to get them and leave them in my dwarf snakehead tank. I'm not so familiar with this fish, but have seen those in Nick's tank, they have a very unusual smiling face, supposed to be peaceful (until breeding?). But during breeding which fish would be peaceful?

I saw them too when i bought the Frontosas from Nick. They are big & fat.
