Whats the biggets AT/Silver Tiger anyone has or seen? Mine stayed at 6" for a long time but recently has had a growth spurt and is hitting 9"+. A large part of this is due to being fed pellets/foodsticks now on a regular basis (used to only get frozen food) and an aggressive Hepsetus odoe being removed from the tank.

I've never heard of them getting bigger than 12" in aquaria-am I wrong?:confused:

mines about 7"

I think datnoid 101 has a silver over 11 inch, maybe 12. Can't find the post though.
There's another thread with pics showing a silver wild caught And on on the fishing hook, that def. Looks over 13 inch.
I'll try to dig it out later when I get home. (using search on I phone on mfk is way too slow bro....

I have had two that seemed to top out between 12 and 13 inches. I had to part with them so I am not sure if and how much bigger they get.
