really good to hear man! yeah, the bigger one had a 3 month strike when I first got him.. It's something with these damn NGT's.. why can't monster fish be like guppy, urinate in a shots glass - drop fish in - feed - done.. haha..

I'm surprised the threadstarter took such a gamble with an expensive fish in such poor condition. Sunken belly, wafer thin and cam see the skull through the skin .
Looks like it's not eaten in a few months.

no money involved.. I'm just taking care of him until I can leave him to his rightful owner.. no aggression what so ever between the 2 ngt's.. (or any other tiger) he's been starving for a year and I just offered to try nurturing him back to health..

Anyhoo.. baby steps but I managed to get him to eat 2 zebra danios.. he's too weak to hunt so he will only take wounded fish.. but some food is better than no food..

unfortunately he didn't make it.. he was found dead when I came back from work.. I opened him and I found the 2 feeders I managed to give him yesterday totally intact.. I don't know if this is even possible but my suspicion is his digestional system crashed all together.. and was no longer able to digest anything..

very, very sad end for a beautiful and rare fish.. well, that's it for this thread.. I gave it a shot.. f''', I hate losing tigers..

That's a little harsh T1.... Don't get me wrong, I'm all for posting ones own opinion, just as I did mention I would have never had paid for such a weak ngt, however, the threadstarter stated he was just trying to help out a friend wit a malnutritioed ngt. And I commend that effort.
