Perhaps can soak the MPs in water to remove the chemicals before feeding . What I heard is that the shell actually contain calcium which is good for tigers .

Bro , you may wanna consider to upgrade your tank to minimum 522 , so that your tigers got ample space to swim around , which in turns may enhance their growth rate .

calcium in this form also kinda difficult for the tigers to absorb, since its indigestible and tigers dont even bother to chew

Hi bro, just to advise if u want to comm ur aro wif ur tiger better make sure tat ur tiger is at least 3/4 the size of ur aro only if not ur aro will suffer wat my redz like torn fin n drop scale as the tiger will attack the aro n wil make them very jumpy.. Now i comm my 15'' Red wif a 8'' ST only pretty peaceful liao..

Cheers!

Hi all bro, Maybe u all can consider feeding ur tiger wif ''MP'' which u buy them as live prawn then u freeze them. Cos i know there do have some chemical in dead prawn which u buy from market or super market to preserve them longer.. But live prawn dun have n the price is just a bit more expensive only cost u abt $12-13 per kg at Sheng Siong..

For me i feed all my tiger MP wif shell n i strongly believe tat they do absorb
all the vitamins n mineral from it. The reason is simple.. I saw them taking in the MP wif shell when they pass out is all the black black milk milk stuff nv see any shell n where they go to??? Think abt it..

Cheers!
