minimum tank size for dwarf pike

[chills1026]

i am curious about dwarf pikes.what is the minimum size tank i can keep a solo one in assuming they can be kept alone.

I guess no one has an answer - I do not know if a Pike Topminnow (max size for female 8 inches/male, 6 inches) is a dwarf pike. If so, a 55 gal tank is the min that will work for that fish since it prefers to sit in place and not swim. Again, no idea if the two are the same - best answer I can find. Good luck.

By dwarf pike do you mean,crenicichla compressiceps?Because there are other pike cichlid species sold as such.If it is the fore mentioned species then a 10 gallon would work(if it is alone),but a twenty is preferable.This species only gets three inches long.
