I'd have to say that I think lents are a bit more aggressive than marms for the most part. Given a large enough tank with plentiful hiding places they do seem to mellow out a bit though. 
Generally marms and lents do look fairly similar, although lents tend to keep more spots on their faces and bodies as they mature. Marms are normally void of any spots at all upon maturity. Also lents will have more rosettes or 'pearls' along their bodies as juv, and sometimes as adults.

I cant wait to get my pair of Marmoratas. A friend of mine is going to bring me back a male and female from Germany. I guess they're cheap over there????? He said he could get me a half grown pair for around $10usd there.
I have a 150 gallon tank cycled and ready
. Im holding the cycle with about 25 - 1" convicts........they are sure to be devoured as soon as the pikes enter the tank and get their "balance"
nice pikes. mine is still tiny !
Took a quick picture of the male last night. He is starting to color up quite nicely for sure! He is definitely putting on size and weight quicker than the female.
