I know you got the LP, but I don't think you really could have gone wrong with either fish. I've never owned an LP, but can at least give a bit of info on the tigrinus for anyone interested. I have a tig who was definitely shy for about 3 weeks, but, after some patience, has started hand feeding like a champ and is getting quite happy to see me. I figure in a month, I'll have an incredibly beautiful and very personable tig. Sounds like the LP adapted easier to his new surroundings.
I'm picking up a 7" tig tomorrow as soon as the LFS opens. I have always wanted one and a guy gave me a heads up that he was trading in the 7" for the 14" one they had at the LFS so I went up there right before they closed and left a $20 deposit.
I need a catfish that is as docile as possible so my jardini don't go bizerk on him.
hes doin great, got him on Hikari Massivores right now, as well as night crawlers! I would like him to get on Hikari Foodsticks as well, so he doesnt get a heart attack from all the calories in Massivores Here is a pic of him!
