Oh Sure Im a Paddy :D
Does anyone have any info on TSN's i have done a lot of research. What type of food would be the best Please Post Pics :)
All the Best Luke.
 
At that size I would suggest Massivore pellets until he hits 12" than switch him over to cheaper frozen foods like shrimp,tilapia fillets, scallops, silversides...any meaty food except red meats. If you take care of yours correctly it will grow very quick. Mine went from 4-6" to 23" in 8months

LoL Thanks any Other inFo?? Like Tank Mates He will be Housed with Silver Arowana, Clown Knifefish, Cichla Ocelaris and a few Friendly fish
 
Can I ask your tank size? Also what other info are you lookin for just let me know so I can be more specific with my answers.
 
900L i think its Like 260Gallons i dont have it yet but i will be buying the TSN when i do should be ready By Next Month iL Make an album When its finished.
Is there AnyThing that i can use too keep my water crystal clear i will be doing 40% clean outs every week and The tank is 10mm Glass But there is gonna be a Lot of Glass Supports in it :)

7ftx2.8ftx2.8ft How Big must the sump be im going with a 4x2x2 Foot
sorry for all the questions :(
 
With your stock that sump should work. just make sure you have plenty of flow at least 10x per hour and lots of bio media. I would also do a bare bottom. I tiled mine because of how much waste they produce plus it will also make cleaning easier after feedings
 
Thanks i dont think i will go Bare Bottom LoL in all seriousness i Dont care how much Clean outs i Have to do im Going with large Rocks. So if things do get messy iL take em Out :D
 
ok. The only other things you may have to worry about is your TSN out growing your other fish a bit and eat them. You dont already have the other stock I would suggest purchasing your tsn's tankmates at a larger size to avoid it.
 
I suppose you Guys are the experts Bare Bottom it is :)
I will keep you guys updated if you want?
