My husband wanted a Pike Cichlid. Ok....whatever. So, we go to the LFS, and purchase 2 of them. Now, one is ok...he actually is a FISH. The other is this thing known as a "Belly Crawler"....now, does anyone have any info on this THING? He is so mean, attacks the other fish, eats everything in site, and digs huge gulleys in the substrate. He hides and when the food is introduced he comes slithering out of his hiding spot and annoys all the other fish. He looks similar to the other PIKE, same coloring, but he doesnt swim...he crawls...it's disgusting. This is coming from a woman who LOVES cichlids...this is MY Cichlid tank that I have worked hard at. I need some info on this thing please. I have a feeling I'm going to have to move him. I was thinking of putting him in with my 12" Red Tail Cat.......:innocent: The Pike is 3" long. HELP
