I bought a 5" NTT TIGER iin 2 weeks ago. he still doesn't eat anything. It always hide besides the driftwood. his tankmate is 10" HB golden arowana, 8 " indo tiger, 7" flagtail, 8" and 6" peacock bass. I don't see they did bother my NTT. I even bought him a feeder, and it seems he is not interested at all. So, Do u guy have any recommends?
Did you happen to buy it from an LFS in Markham? I ask because I'm in the same boat, except mine is slightly smaller at about 4".

Where is LFS? Mine is the one in McCowan and Steele. I bought one big and one small. Small one is about 3” and I put it with my 5 babies tiger and he eat the bloodworm with the other. Just the big one he doesn’t eat..

Yes, I bought mine from the same one. He was ok (although not eating) last week, swimming around, but I think he got bullied and is now just hiding (still not eating).

oh.. mine is same.. always hiding. I think we need more patient for it. What is the tankmate? I have two Peacock bass with him and they are always eating. It is hard to leave the food for NTT. That's why I want to get off my two Peacock bass.

I hope you are right. Mine was living with another NTT, same size but eating well, a motoro ray, a flagtail and an arowana. I've since moved him to his own tank but he seems to be hiding even more.

Thanks!! I don't have other tank except one 10GAl tank with 1x2.5" ntt tiger and 5x 1.5" indo tiger. I may try to put that one with them . But I am worry that one will eat all 1.5" indo tiger.

Anyone interests Peacock bass? they are really looking nice!! But they are really bothering my NTT to eat. When I looked for the Peacock bass, It is hard to find or I need to pay much for them. And now when I want to sell, no one come and ask.
