TSN Size

[steve_b]

What size do TSN's get to in captivity? I know they are large but how large? and what can they be kept with ?? Would rays and P Bass be OK ?

My local store has some 3" ones in. How long would one be OK for in a 7 x 2.5 x 2ft tank before needing a pond?

If they are tigers i give you a year to 18 months if its a lima I would bet 2 years. also depends on feeding habits you have the more you feed the faster they grow.

I've seen some posted on here that looked to be every bit of 3-4' long (1+ meter). It could have been even larger but no sizes were given if I recall. They were in a very large indoor pond/tank. Pretty sure there was a YT video posted as well. No idea how old they were either. Point being, they could reach those sizes, eventually. I would say a 7x2.5 tank would last a year or more, depending on the specific fish and other variables.

I had one for two years. when I purchased it he was about 8 inches long and when he stop growing he was about 25 inches and would almost try to eat anything in the tank even if it wasn't quite small enough. All you need is LARGE tank mates and preferably something that doesn't hang out on the bottom with it.
