I love that tank. How long was it B4 yours started eating?

 

[T1KARMANN]

tigs are not as easy as you think to keep it wont be a walk in the park i have had 3 die in the past for no reason

the one i have now was a free gift from a freind of mine and had been feeding well in his tank for 3 months so as soon as i put him in my tank he ate the same day but i did have to throw food at him for about 2weeks now as soon as food hits the water he goes mad looking for it

I didnt assume that it would be a walk in the park. I know tigrinus are delecate and sensitive.
