...its african tiger fish aint it? i've never had one so i dont know anything about them. whats the scientific name?

Hydrocynus Vittatus is the latin name.
 
ill try to take a pic of it tomorow whenever i have time. that thing is getting too crazy i forgot to feed it one night and it ate my BGK dammit. this morning i woke up and only half of the BGK was there-.-
 
nice fish, don't the tiger fishes get like 7 feet long, or is that just a myth. another question, aren't there 2 different species of the african tiger fish. one agg, and the other mellow? the pet shop around my house was selling the mellower verson of the tiger fish, it was like 3 inches long, and they wanted 100.00 for it, and the dam thing looked like minow with alittle red color on the fins. I think they were trying to rip someone off, but I don't know too much about them. does anyone one have any really big pics of the african tiger.

WOW!!! does anyone have one that big in their tank? I know some people on this here forum have some pretty big tanks that's why I'm asking. I have to get me one of those. another thing, can you keep more than one in the tank when they get bigger??

tigerfags has had some big ones. even when there little if you want more than one you need to at least get a school of 5 or 6 or at least some shinny fish that are the same size like bala sharksor something
