The largest and most colorful of all the Pike Cichlids, the Zebrina Pike gets its name from the striping along its body. Maxing out at around 15 inches, a large tank is highly recommended, with 120 gallon being the minimum needed for success. As well, due to its size and aggression, other large and aggressive cichlids are recommended as tank mates, with the occasional large barb working as well.
