Finally managed to track down a GATF :) it's the smallest tiger fish I have ever seen it's only about 1".

Pretty sure it's a GATF from the head shape but I will post pics for a proper id if it's not to small?

It's a little beat up but hopefully nothing that won't heal up :)

Cool I was really hoping it was :) yea I am going to, he is eating bloodworm already I will try to add some whitefish in there tomorrow.

How many times a day do you recommend feeding him?

I'd keep a constant supply of guppies in there for him just so he can eat whenever he wants until he fattens up a little and gets a little bigger

I will probably feed 3-4 time if he will eat it. Thanks. Yea it's crazy they can survive in that tiny bit of water for that long

I don't really want to get him used to live unless I have to and it's also technically illegal in the uk so i will keep that as a last resort but thanks for the advice

I didn't realize you were in the uk. I'd say stick with your plan then. Hopefully it'll be easier to switch to pellets since it's so small
