that LFS is suck. I am from Indonesia, where sumatra is part of the country. To tell you the truth, there are two sources for Indo tiger, one is sumatra island (jambi and palembang) and the other source is Bornoe island (the major source is pontianak while in the other area like palangkaraya, the IT still can be found with much lower quantity).

Currently, the available IT in the market is coming from Pontianak, borneo. The nature productions in Pontianak reach the highest level ever this year. That's why you can easily find baby IT in the market.


Hope this can clarify some things for you

your THE man bro! Thank you for the valuable info. It's nice to know the place(s) where these awesome fish are harvested.
 
The main thing you need to remember is Siamese means Thai. Thailand used to be called the Kingdom of Siam. To call any fish that does not come from the water ways of Thailand Siamese is incorrect. As others have said there are no Siamese Tigers under 6 inches for sale anywhere. They are extinct in the wild.
The reason no other fish is 100% like them, even if it comes from Cambodia, is because they used to be found in the Chaphroya river basin in the centre of Thailand.
