Description

Two Spot Pikes hail from the rivers of West Africa and grow to around 25–30cm in length. With their elongated, torpedo-shaped body and striking spotted patterning, they are visually impressive predators that make a bold centrepiece in a large, appropriately stocked aquarium.

Special requirements: Two Spot Pikes are active, predatory fish that require a spacious tank with plenty of open swimming room alongside areas of dense cover, bogwood, overhanging plants, and caves all suit them well. They should only be kept with tank mates of a similar or larger size, as smaller fish will simply be viewed as food. Water quality must be kept high; they are sensitive to poor conditions. A secure lid is advisable as they are capable of jumping.

Diet: Two Spot Pikes are carnivores.  At Wirral Aquatics we feed EBO Pro Soft Artemia and Mussel sticks. We also feed live foods including bloodworm and mysis shrimp.

Every aquarium is different. These are a guide based on water chemistry, adult size and temperament. Individual fish have their own personalities. Introduce new tank mates gradually, keep groups at the right numbers, and watch how everyone settles in. Ask our team if you'd like advice for your setup.

Ordering livestock

We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.

If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.

If you would like to view footage of the particular fish that you are looking to purchase, please contact us and we will send footage as per your request.
