pike attack in aquarium

[purelegend08]

Wow, i fish but i never would have thought that a pike can and does attack something like a fish so quickly and like in one go, Crazy. They really are the main fresh water predator, they have attacked many people and they're easily intimidated which helps when fishing, but i always return the fish A.S.AP for those who might not agree with fishing or whatever! Brilliant Fish!

[jaholma]

I also have pikes, And I want one of them in my aquarium. But I need a few tips. So, if you want to help me, anwser as soon as possible please. Here are some questions:

1. What do they eat?

2. How much liter is your aquarium?

3. Can you keep pikes together?

4. How much fish you feed in one day to one pike?

Greetzz.., Jaholma:P

[Maailen]

haha, check the orange fish on the left from 1:42

XDXD

[longsky18]

il pesce più straordinario!!

[gorkamorka07]

i presume u onl have to feed it about once a week less.....and the hotter the water the faster the growth rate....?

[lynnt1958]

@gorkamorka07 I put a small one (4") in my 70 gallon 2 weeks ago and it eats 2 or 3 feeder fish every day. I have semi-aggressive fish in this tank,so I may have made a mistake adding the pike.Would appreciate input from experienced fish owners.

[SuperDudesonsFan]

Thats awesome!:D I like it!

[ZombeeXTC]

ye man buiding me own aquarium plan to keep a great white with a load of turkish geezers with no escape fukin hate turks muslim bastards

[BowHunt1229]

how many gal. ????

[neilhosey]

must have to keep stocking that with fish.. pike would clean that out every day. Another thing that tank is so small.. not very fair keeping a pike in there especially as it gets bigger.. his pray have no where to go though :)

[carpcatcher1992]

why have you actually got a pike in your fishtank?

[KzafProductions]

same reason why you got a fish in a fishtank ?

[carpcatcher1992]

Ye but pike belont in lakes.

[KzafProductions]

so do all fishes

[tweaks88]

fish is already plural haha dont need the "es" but i agree with you all fish that we keep belong and come from lakes whats so different about keeping a jack or a walleye or perch or anything just because its a fish we all reguyrally see around our area makes it wierd i bet places where they dont have Pike or perch or walleye or any of other fish people wouldnt think its wierd or in africa where they have african cichlids naturally they probably think its wierd to have them in tanks

[BowHunt1229]

why? ive got a 12 inch largemouth a 6 inch bullhead and a 4 inch sunfish in my fish tank.

[IHATEJ00]

lol the yellow fish going up and down the left wall :)

[Kevin4121993]

[ohbjkohbjk]

great wish i had a pike in my aquarium they are amazing

[popcorn7714]

i wonder how often you have to replenish the bait

[westyorkslad]

pike totally rule but prefer not to see them in a tank as have the potential to reach between 40 n 50 pounds in weight

[5hockeyboy5]

thats not a small tank

[CJE1982]

thats a nice set up mate! I had a tank with perch in but it kept getting green algae on the sides so i put them in the pond outside how or what do u use 2 krrp it so clean?

[Jamess1472]

uhhh why do you have a pike in a fish tank may i ask?

[BillionNames]

damn thats faster than a snake atack

[aznbeeezy]

i think the tank is a lido 2 small

[eastyg]

[patrickmulls102]

rthts class

[ipodtouchhacker3]

[fnnw7777]

Looks like a small dempsy.

[NuGgY15]

lol nice pike m8

unluck 2 b a fish in that tanks though!!!!

[connorb5]

you shouldnt put pike in tanks full stop they prefer larg areas so they can actually hunt.

[gregstar1986]

i would not want to be a small fish in there. but say you will have to buy a lot of them small fish if it keeps eating them?

[muskieman451]

nice tank kinda need a bigger tank tho

[ramenrulez2]

dude, that is so cool man! ur pike is fast! and yet he has time to leanr, i wonder how could f a hunter he will be when he is older, i don't think it's terrible what he did to his fish, i mean, nature is cruel, but dude, u should get like baby carp or bass, u know the tiny ones that r rly fast, apparently, they rly teach the pike how to hunt because they r so fast, oh and try catch them wild with a net at a lake, but nice fish man, they're sweet.

[VXLBeast]

Wow, thats terrible that you would do that to your fish, but oh well, to each there own. Lol, he is pretty fast.

[geeklord09]

that would be sweet to have a northern in my 38 gallon aquarium!!!

[veryandywatford]

i bet the other fish just love being trapped in there with a pike..

[kizy12345]

i caught a pike yesterday but hes to big for my aquariam dude if i had himm that would be aazing urs strikes so fastt

[stewpeezy72]

dude, you fish are amazing!! Please put them in a bigger tank!!! That's too small for just one of them now. just imagine a year down the road!!!

[hassadmassad]

Pretty fast :)

[RyanFitchett]

i want this tank in my room.

[laf8675309]

...... so thats wer my fish went

[sloopsapkokstokhok]

gsus theyre so stunningly fast

[Eryyx]

Pikes are amazing fast predators, look at that pike he swallows that fish in less than 1 sec. Amazing, so incredible fast, no wonder it is apex predator in european lakes and rivers.

[epeli44]

there goes that fish.

[trytthisnow]

dAM TEHY CAN MAKE SOME FAST MOOOVES :d

[AndyStewart111]

pike are amazing fish to fish for, even jack pike put up a good fight, a good pike loch or river and a bit of dead bait and your in for a good time

[nagahide13]

Bah, im jealous. Northern pike are punks and hardly fight at all... at least in the warmer months. Half the time you think you god some weeds or a log or somethin.... then that gd monster head comes outta the wata hehehe.

[AndyStewart111]

lol, well maybe in nothern england but up in scotland.............. well, loch awe is a place to hunt for them, even 100 yards from my house at the forth and cylde canal, place is hochin with them

[nagahide13]

Ah this is in Michigan.

Generally you catch pike while your bass fishing, and it kind of sucks... they dont fight, and you need plyers.

[AndyStewart111]

Ah, well i also know the feeling loses a fish to a pike, been many times lost a brown trout or even a small pike to a 20 pound beast

[hannesz88]

I live in sweden, we have alot of pike and their prey everywhere so no big deal indeed, but I understand some peoples concern.. I really do :(

[hannesz88]

Who cares if pikes don't live in aquariums.. I don't care.. I liked the video... Pikes don't have any feelings (So called soul) so it's no big deal at all.. It was funny, i liked it, many other liked it and that's the most important thing...

[kevt222006]

u sick fkr, the pike would have dyed shortly after the vid, u deserve to be locked up!

[tehzeebs]

how ?

[jetplane2006]

Anyone seen Darkie?

[jpkers]

i bet the other one is poo-ing himself

[johnyfromthejungle]

asshole! what are you thinking about putting a pike with these ones!?

[Noodles018]

Why is everyone putting thumbs down next to the good comments? Its true that pike DONT belong in aquariums.

[999pobanz]

where do you get a pet pike?

[iamthenumber7]

You know the last fish in there at around 1:32 is thinking "Oh, Sh*t.. Oh, Sh*t" as he bangs his face up against that glass... Thats what happens when someone eats your tankmate right in front of you.

[theboy1]

YO PROPS that's the crazyest thing I have seen a pike do does he like the live feeing or what nice job

[maveda]

Most stupud Vid ever

This Pike needs to be in nature not in a glas box

[chigorider]

stupid!

[00NB00]

Who would keep a pike together with tropical fishes? Ofcourse it will attack tham!

[RippersToll]

Dont understand whats with all the people saying its wrong to keep a pike?! Its just a fish like any other! Id love to keep a pike if i had a chance.The only problem is that they eat alot - they are glutons , and need alot of space.And to a guy who said that you pay a find for catching i pike , i say your goverment is ripping you off big time! Pike is not indangered.

P.S. Cool video!

[CatholicBiologist]

no, but they require much more space than small fish, and grow much bigger. Its like forcing a dog to stay in a kennel.

[RippersToll]

People keep tropical catfish , that grow to be over a meter long , and are sold in pet shops. Pike is not different in that case. Allso pike dont move alot even in nature , they usualy sit in one spot and wait for food to pass by.

[DoughboyJonesmk2]

Unless they're in a river. Then they patrol the banks.

[CatholicBiologist]

I have studied Northern Pike at the University of Notre Dame Research Center, and studied their physiology and their ecological effects.

Where have you studied pike? What do you know about them? Or are you just comparing them to a tropical catfish because of the size similarities.

[RippersToll]

You dont have to be a rocket scientist , to know basic pike behaviour. Yes i did compare them to tropical catfish because they can be as big as pike , because the size was something that people pointed out. I know that pike , atleas adults are ambush predators(they can change theyr camouflage according to the background) , which generaly sit in one spot , and wait for prey to pass by , they do change theyr hiding spots from time to time though.Pikes live in cool water and can die if water is to

[RippersToll]

to warm. My point is that they are no different then other fish , that people keep as pets , and they are not endangered , and are actualy considered a pest in some lakes nad rivers.Fortunatly can they regulate theyr own numbers through cannibalism.

[AaronGreen]

Catholic is German for kiddie fiddler.

[deathsamurai50]

that tank maybe bigger than it looks. just after it backs up after 00:30 something comes from the right but cant really work out if its another pike or something else :/

[Bamegera]

its anotha pike

[irishrover1967]

dreth your right man plus a pike is a preditor that needs loads of space in a tank they cant even move. THATS WRONG

[dreth112]

you have to have a licence to keep natural fish in a tank like that

[CptJimEd]

of ok..lokk up ike in yer natural history book...under VORACIOUS!!!!!

[canariessamymy]

what hell are you doing keeping a pike in a fish tank you should be locked up

[erikw14]

yea your right think of al the other fishes

[gotorontoraptors3]

pike are so patient unlike me

[chaibill]

thank looks too small what size is it?

[notdeadjustlazy]

Pike are so cute.

[Musashia1]

I had a tank of non aggressives and a tank with 2 Oscars and a Pike. staight aggressive. The pike just hung at the bottom and dug itself a cave and kept to itself. a mean fish but yes it is legal...at leat in Colo.

[rockybot]

F'kin Awesome

[majesticmec]

It's a freshwater barracuda :D

[MrBlonde132]

Ignore those PETA asswipes good video. It would be awesome to have a Pike in an aquarium.

[zamorakman]

is this legal?

1

[initbludz]

american cichlids are pets, not pike

[jihigh]

shouldnt hav pike in with live bait!!! sick fuck!!

[well1234567]

its what happens in life. deal with it

[katiecarr19]

keeping native fish is illegal.

[Levzi]

I never knew you could keep pike in a tank. Cool video though, they are sooooo quick.

[JonnyG2424]

"air system thing "..? its a filter u stupid fuck

[krirp]

what u doin keepin pike ya dirty bastard?

[aguynamesteven]

what kind of water is that every time i have a freshwater fish in my tank it keeps dieing the next day

[criscjk]

sounds like yr ph levels and chlorene levels are way out.

[kmattso1]

you need to learn to cycle your tank

[brockthelock]

how big is your tank do u have a air system thing that blow oxygen in the water

[su27forserbia]

I love pike-fishing pike is excelent predator fish and wen you see it in action you can know what I meen -but aquarium is no place for pike-love the video cool

[M1stake1988]

Great video!

Thanks!

I'm also an aquariumist.

[eule84]

im from germany, and the pike is one of the most freuquent predator fish in our lakes. ive two aquariums for my one. one of them is a cold water tank.i read many articles about non tropical fish in an aquarium.if you can handle the important things about the water quality(for example with cooling systems)theyve said that its impossible to take a wild pike out of a lake, but its ok if you buy a young one from a breeder.

[20gilly06]

fuck the polish wankers if i see them nicking pike ill give them a good smack

[nexiousneon]

pike are a wild predator growing upwards in 30 lbs it is inhuman to kepp them in a tank of that size and in warm water!im from ireland and here if you kill damage or take a pike from a lake you can go to court and have to pay a fine of 2,500 euros and to the person that commnented thats thinking of putting a zander,perch,pike in a tank your just sick. In poland you can eat pike put now most of the lakes are empty of fish pike

[kdc43]

In Northern Califorina,USA, Pike is an invasive species eating native fish. They are using fish poison to try to kill them all. If you catch one you're supposed to cut it in half and throw it away.....Is that inhumane? We should get Captain Kirk and Chief Engineer Scott to beam all those pike to Ireland from California,USA.

[Paulsb2005]

Here in the uk years ago, Only royal family were allowed to eat pike. It was illegal for anyone not within the royal connection/family to eat them. Wierd eh. Release them, they are needed.

[Healeymonster]

Pike are massively cannibalistic, the biggest predator of immature pike and jack pike are....pike! You can't reduce pike numbers by fishing for them and killing them. It just don't work. unless you netted all the rivers and lakes!

[TrancetasticWilza]

Hay kdc43, Pike are vital for a balanced ecosystem, they clear up dying and diseasesd fish so it's wrong to persecute them. :-(

[Paulsb2005]

Ok what you say is stupid Because a fish will grow to the size of its home ok. Lots and lots and lots and lots of WILD fish are kept in tanks yet no mention of those here. Koi are wild They are in tanks yet they can exceed 50lbs. Carp, tench, and especially exotic species in warm tanks all can grow very large eyt are kept. I do not like pike in tanks tho but my argument isnt the same as yours, its because i love pike fishing and love pike.. End of story.

[WooDy2191]

ok one i hate ppl who kill this magnifcant species they shouldnt be! they diserve respect!

ok now that ova this is amazin tho i dont like them kept like this in small spaces but it shows how amazing they are so fast so percies so powerful!

trully a magnifcant fish!! diserves alot of respect

[woohoodonut]

what the fuck that pike was swimming backwards

[Mdief]

Actually the best place to cath pike is in Ontario pal, best fishing in the world

[24rozy69]

hey, be quiet.

[1itemprayernub]

at least this guy knows what hes talking about

[nitrobudgie]

The polish are known for there taste of course fish. The british fishing scene is pretty pissed off with the poles eating every thing they catch and leaving the remains to rot on the bank.Oh and the best place for pike is norfolk or scotland..

[TrancetasticWilza]

I take it you caught it on a river or lake and took it home and put it in that tank!!?

[ExtraTerrestrials]

dammit! what a speed!

[troutsnapps]

Pike are some of the best eats...and Im a rich boy you stupid ass

[yournameislimitless]

1itemprayernub said:

"they're only food to poor people or dirty polish"

poor people, or dirty polish?

You realize comments like this, just show how ignorant, and uneducated you are. I hope you're younger than twelve. That way you still have time to get an education, and do something with your life.

You could also just kill yourself.

[Epollitz]

Right because at 13, 14 or 15 you're far too old to get an education... Oops

[vtwinlunatic]

The other fish dont look happy lol.

[BloodyDracula]

The best place to catch pikes and not only is in the Danube Delta, ROMANIA!

[warden999]

pike make good eating dumb fucker

[soopa123]

damn, thats a baby pike

[1itemprayernub]

they're only food to poor people or dirty polish

[pogon02]

you are a racist piece of shit you are...

[Andizzle369]

My Bluegill Does the samae thing to guppies and White Clouds!!! I've had him in a 25 gallon for a year!!!

[slaytanic01]

pike r food not pets dumbasses

[bigroundtable]

why do u freakin idiots post this crap get a life

[destroytok]

second is right down corner, but a little dirk side

[stupidcrazypuffer]

Where did you get these pikes? did you buy them? catch them?

[destroytok]

catch them in Ankara/Turkey (Canilli Lake)

[BWDKoryuu]

How often did you feed them? Im thinking of getting a pike from my local pond, the little ones are cute

[cubsoxred]

just a vicious animal. i love fishing for em, love when they nail a mepp

[Deadmonkeybrain]

I wanna "PinkMarlin",awesome.

[Lakeguy123]

Good way of emptying an aquarium quick

[wiiguyboy]

wow really cool  :)

[pennyrock10]

y du u even have a pike in a tank??? dopey doo~~~~~~~

[CaptainStriker]

to what it does most prob.

[jonnyboy970]

That's really clever - putting a coldwater fish in a tank with tropical fish. Well done.

[Nat1226]

if its tru that wen u die u cum bak as sumfin els, id cum bak as a pike.

[3030x150x508]

That tank is not too big for one pike...you should keep it next time lol.

[UrsusC330]

great Video man. That's what I call YouTube movie! thanx.(I love Pikes)

[jordanwalvin]

im thinking about getting a pike, a perch and zander for my fish tank, then seeing which one kills the others first lol, great video though

[maaackan]

Haha lol the biggest one will eat the smaller ones :P

[Nat1226]

gud idea, but i fink the perch will go first, then itl b a fite between zander and pike. i fink gud old esox wud be last one standing though

[t0mcos]

Holy shit, you gave me a headache with that writing.

[Nat1226]

how did i?

[squirtyfuma]

also throw in a clown knife and oscar and green terror and red devil.... and also piranna..

[themadblimper]

Every single one of those fish would be consumed.

[rapsux1983]

Great idea...the only problem...ITS ILLEGAL DUMBASS!

[jordanwalvin]

you shouldent return fish afdter they have been capt in a fish tank, the other fish are a risk, they may be carrying deseese and could cause a massive fish kill epidemic in the lake, but the risks are low.

[Feenyxxx95]

lmao, Every fish in the wild has a 90% chance of being a parasitic carrier. Thats why catching wild specimen requires deworming in quarantine. A captive kept specimen is easily more likely to have no disease than a wild caught.

[MelvinBee]

That pike is way too big for that tank....

[destroytok]

This pikes go back to their freedom 2 days ago in a lake :) Thnx for your response Bye
