I love tanks with that proportion. The 8x2x2 240, and I've got a friend with a 36x9x9 (inches, not feet lol). 12x3x3 would be sweet for smaller fish!

Yea it would be pretty sweet...and yes i know jewels are african...but the bright red would look good in there. Im not a fan of a tank full of fish the same color....cough
I would LOVE a no maintenance 10,000 gallon tank with:
1 bowfin
1 snakehead
2 red tail catfish
1 Alligator gar
10 red belly piranhas
1 Asian Arowana
3 saddled bichirs
1 very big and quick electric crayfish
4 oscars(1 of each)
1 black knifefish
1 vampire fish
1 bala wolf fish
1 snapping turtle(shallow base part included)
1 tiger fish(small type)
3 peacock bass
And also a 30 gallon breeding feeder fish tank.

H. forskahlii is the smallest of the tigerfish, they are said to reach 10-12" in an aquarium although FishBase says they can hit 30".No small type of tigerfish

I'd say they'd easily get 18" if not more. Under ideal conditions they will grow, as with any fish
Clown killifish are little tigerfish. So are tiger barbs. So are VATF, if you look at GATF. It depends on what you consider 'little' and 'tigerfish'.
That's an interesting way to think about it.
To be fair, size is a very interesting thing. For example, I'm 5'4" - and I've got a family friend who's 6'9". To the average person, that difference in size is pretty big. But if you're scaling things up to an outer-space level of "size", that difference is almost infinitely small. But if we scale down to an atomic level of "size", that difference is almost infinitely large.
To keep the thread from derailing though - I would assume that the OP was talking about a species of Hydrocynus, generally considered to be on the lower end of the size scale. Which brings forskahlii to mind.
