NGT now full-blown Massivore

Nice NGT, sounds like he's the centerpiece boss fish of the tank. Great job getting it that big already and growing.

Can't wait until mine goes for massivore pellets.

Thanks for the comment. Yes he is the main character-only silver dollars and a Polypterus senagalus in with him. Unless you've a massive tank I find Tigers are best on their own.

Yeah, solitary is pretty good for them, I heard they get really darn aggressive against each other, not to mention they get huge. So it's not a such a great idea to get a lot of them, unless like you said you have a massive enormous tank to house a good group for them so they can spread out the aggression and live well together.

Fully agree with you on that one

This NGT was very stubborn-when I had NTT in past I was lucky and they took pellets immediately.

how is this possible?? lol my NGT wont even eat frozen fish (whole) not even a dead guppy. everything has to be alive and wiggle for him to have any kind of interest in it

Well my NGT was the same only with live earthworms.
