Tigrinus - The new addition

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
im looking for another tig, i lost mine last summer and would love to replace. i live in cincinnati and i see your ne ohio, id be willing to drive for one, if you know of one available in your area?
thx
 
Nice, I've been looking for one but have had no luck with my LFS. How much did you give for him? The last one I saw was 20" and the guy wanted $750. Out of my price range and my Brachyplatystoma Juruense is only 10", so she would end up being a feeder.
 
I always wanted one of these...

Nice cat.
 
Thanks,

Yea hes extremely healthy and doing great. I just picked up a very good condition 150 gallon (tall) 48"x24"x31" with stand off craigslist this weekend to replace my old 90 gallon.

Set it all up last night and what an upgrade. The Tig and baby orino pbass will be going in to growout as soon as I determine the water parameters are stable and theres no worry about a mini cycle.
 
Finally had some time to take pictures. I finished up installing my drip system on both my big tanks this week and its been working flawlessly thus far.

Tigrinus is about 8" right now not counting streamers and very healthy.

I also included a pic of one of my lima shovelnose catfish that Ive grown out to around 8" from about 3".

i would be worried about the large ruff gravel tigs are not good at feeding and snap at everything and swallow gravel sometimes which they cant pass
