Just measured my Goliath African tiger fish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Least moves as possible with these fish. He'll be fine in the 135 most likely, what are the dimensions? And when will ou have the 900 ready estimates ofcourse

The 135 is a trapezoid with 5’ long at the back. 4’ long at the front, 2’ deep and 2’ tall. The bigger tank is around 4 months away at most.
 
I did it once before I sold my 13" VATF. I put mine into mid-sized foam box filled with water from the tank and use tape measure for measuring it.
 
how long you had him, mine is about 13-14" as well. Looks huge out of the water or you have tiny hands :)
Hahaha! I’ve had him for almost 2 years now. And he’s pretty thick. I’d say I have medium sized hands that look appropriate for a 6’ guy :). And yeah, the reason I measured him was because I was estimating his size to be around 12".

Ha ha ha!

I have had mine 2 years as well. but mine was more like 6-7" when i got him... Just recently got him broke to frozen foods.
I thought mine was growing very slow, but yours seems about the same growth.
What do you have him eating? been broke for a while?

Yeah, at first I thought my guy was stunted lol. He's been on massivores since July of 2016.
