footage of the tigrinus in the wild

[oystein]

is there any footage of this species in the wild?
i can't find any and was hoping some of you could help me out.

This will be very interesting to A LOT of people if you can find any. Good luck

Never seen one either. Indeed there is a hole... but then I think I/we have not seen any footage of great many cool catfish in the wild. Amazon is muddy, not friendly to shooting.

ok thanks! i've done a lot of research on this fish without finding any footage of it in its natural habitat. got my first tig this week which might explains my curiosity haha

Congratulations.

If you will, read up on them in this forum, esp. what people feed it in captivity may be crucial to its survival.

I remember watching a video on YouTube about tigrinus fishing. The guy used the bait cast to pick a quite large specimen. It was beautiful fish.
