another thread recently got me interested in this topic( along with a love of this fish) but any way i posted this
has anyone ever actually experienced seeing a 6' plus TSN???? I've recently been to a few public aquariums and a couple had TSN's that were nothing close to this size. in fact the TSN at chattanooga's aquarium, in which i was told was relatively old, was probably no more than 3 feet if that, but very wide for a TSN. just curious if anyone has ever actually come across a behemoth of the size in which everyone on here refers that they can reach(6 plus feet).
( i'm not arguing that they get huge and only the largest of tanks/ponds should house them but just curious if some monster fish keepers here are exaggerating their facts)
the aquarium also had their sign info for the TSN as growing up to 37'' or 39'' can't remember which. either way it's a long shot from 6 feet
well anyway i, and i'm sure many others, would like to know exactly the biggest TSN you've ever seen. Please include where, when, what size tank/pond/or even from the wild, and if possible a picture of the biggest TSN monster you've come across if the info is known. and please no stating you've seen a monster of the 6 plus feet through a picture on the internet. i'd like to know personal experience with seeing the true monsters, and where they are. thank you for your inputs as i'm sure this may truly help many of those "how big does it get" threads and for those like me it will satisfy a truth to what size these monsters attain. thank you as i'm sure this should get interesting
