They are going into a 18 ft x 9ft swimming pool next month. I got my first Tigerfish from Vince's in the San Gabriel Valley (S. Cali) off Valley blvd x San Gabriel blvd in the mid 80's. Saved for almost a year before I could afford it(was in Jr. High then). They had 3 for sale, the smallest one was going for $750 and the other two were $950 and $1500. By the time I was ready for the small one... they had sold him a week earlier. Luckily my mom was willing to pay the difference so I was able to buy the next size up. The tigerfish(8 inches) survived for about 2 months before my Mala decided to taste test him. Costly mistake back then. My next ATF was brought when I was 19. That one lasted over 3 years. Grew him out from 2 inches to over 2ft in an 800 gallon tank mostly off live feeders and fresh salmon fillets. I had to move and lost him while moving. Hopefully this batch will make it to maturity.
... They will be moved again in 2/3 years! 18x9 swimming pool was a very cheap temp. solution.
