What type of pike? There are dwarf pike that a 55 could hold.

There are dwarf pikes you could keep in a 40 breeder, maybe smaller. Then there are pikes in the Lugubris group that get well over a foot and would need at least a 125. So the answer really depends on the species you want to keep.

Think you have to narrow down the type of pike and tank size u have.

I was thinking a 75g natural planted tank with one carnivor fish and feeder fish and shrimp like in the wild

Then something in the saxatalis group will work. What kind of fish are u considering for a carnivore fish?

A pike cichlid and maybe something else

Could a shovel nose catfish go in their to or no if not that's ok

No, they grow much to big.
