Dwarf pike in a 15 gallon tank?

They should be fine for a couple days

They can go a couple days without food easily, but they don't eat snails? NLS pellets are great and they'll love it. Just make sure it's not more than 3 days

I read online that they will eat snails, brineshrimp, frozen blood worms ect? also will they eat regular flakes?

Choosing shellies over a dwarf PIKE! Man, just when I thought you were cool...

 

[CraigRets]

Lol, they are both such cool fish! I wish I could buy more tanks and get both. I'm going with multis just because I can have more than one in the tank and nght be able to breed them.... Ill get a drawf pike in the future for sure

One more question... To make your freshwater tank you add crushed coral? do you make it all crushed coral or mixed with sand and crush coral?

My ph out of the tap is 8.2 so i do nothing but water changes. I have just sand and shells. Some one else will have to suggest the best for buffering. My experience is most of the fish at the lfs are bread here so i don't mess with changing ph I just want it stable.

15 gallons is good for one with no fish 30 gallons for a pair still not tankmates and 55 for pair and tankmates

Are you talking about Neolamprologus multifasciatus or the dwarf pike?
