tigrinus tank size

[devder1]

if i got a small tig, how long could i keep it in a 125?

 

[TheFishJunky]

at least 2 years depending on growth rate.

If I got a small elephant......... j/k!

Where will it go when it outgrows the 125? Much easier to just start with the end in mind. A small pool or pond would suffice.

it would be sold or given to a good home once it was too big, i am leaving home in 4 years so i was just wondering what my time frame was
