[cichla81]

hey guys, i just got a tig a couple of days of from john aka snookn. wild caught columbian around 5-6 inches and i was wondering how hard it is to break them off live guppies onto like krill, shrimp etc? what food should i try to get him on? i will feed him live for a couple more days to fatten him up. thanks for any advice and tips

i got mine on thursday. as of friday night, it was already eating frozen bloodworms, frozen shrimp and sinking pellets. its only about 3" long. the lfs said it was eating bloodworms and feeders. i believe all tigs are wild caught. i think i got lucky and it accepted pellets right off the bat...

make sure whatever you feed it sinks and has a strong scent/flavor.
