Im planning on getting some Dat's here pretty soon and I was just wondering what there average growth rate was like? I heard they grow slow but on average how slow? And what foods should I feed to get the quickest growth?

Depends on their appetite and how much they eat. Ive heard to get them growing at the fastest rate, you stuff um with nightcrawlers. mine have grown less than an inch in a month so far. Thats with feeders. Theres one i only feed shrimp, and hes grown an inch.

They grow very slow.

I don't know exact growth rates...it varies.

Feed them krill or BW when younger.

I now have all my tigers on white bait.

Mealworms are great protien. Cheap and easy to cultivate your own. The one lone Thin bar I have that actually eats them out grew his 2 commrades within a couple months.
