Am no expert, but I believe more or less a swing in temp and water parameters resulted in the ITs showing different sign of stress. Smaller Dats are prone to SDS without owner even knowing it, despite due diligence taken to ensure water tip top condition (temp, swing in PH all plays a part). Hope my assessment is correct coz tatz what I observed sofar with some deaths on small specimens.

I have been maintaining my water temp at 29deg with a heater on, so far so good... all living inside a 4footer bare tank with sponge filter....no casualty so far... 1 or 2pcs have shown some white spots in their finnage though...

recent cold weather has caused my mini tigers to get white spots also.. but added 0.3% salt and heater to 30degrees.. cured within 2 days.. i think mini tigers more prone to diseases as they have weaker immune system..

I just bought home the 3rd ST. Hope it will recover one day from the red patchy body. The 4th piece is in a FGT. Color totally wash out and i just leave it there temporary as my current tank cant handle the bioload. I update more photos of the new st body later.
