    I don't know man. Not a fan of Tigers but I think C328 has them from time to time. I saw some juvenile Tigers, not sure which one. I didn't ask for price but they were at C328 last week.

    I believe the only way to buy ST is only through fellow hobbyists...those in C328 are juvenile ITs

    Oh btw, i am a tiger fan too!

    It's alright if the IT refused to eat during the first day as it is new to the surroundings.....it should be eating after a day or 2 when it settles down....

    FBW is fine for small ITs...

    I also got a few 1cm IndoTiger and i feed them brime Shrimp and small small catfish. The way they chase and bit the catfish is fun and cute to see. The small tiger may appear to be choked when swallowing but to my surprise, it is in the stomach of the tiger after sometime

    For so small IT, you might need to keep a group for them to feel secure, how many you got Bro?

    Small ITs are better kept in groups....they can grow fast if you keep up with your feeding schedule.....

    Rare to see tiger keepers here. Most of the fishes that AQ forumers keep qualify as feeders for tigers. (in terms of size)

    Your small tiger can eat torsat, that great. FBW will be good choice if 1cm kind. Anyone here actually ever eaten a big IT before. Wonder how the taste, they look thick and fat too.

    Try to pump them up at least twice a day and they will grow really fast....mine I feed twice on weekdays and up to 4 times on weekends....

    For 2 feet tank with 8 tigers....you need to watch the Bio load....do change water more frequently if you are pumping them up....
