Thanks for all of the pictures of River Safari Zooish. On the map they show tigerfish being one of the exhibits in the Congo section - do you know if that is a future development or did they abandon the concept and forget to take it off the map?

2 - Congo River

The dwarf crocs are difficult to see but I think the exhibit is quite good for them. they are still quite small (1 m or less) and I guess still getting used to the enclosure, as they were hiding in the back and almost impossible to see.
The "congo jewel" tank (i think that's the name) has a sign with a lot of fish but in fact all it has is a large shoal of subadult congo tetra and one puffer fish. Strange that in this tank they chose to put Anubia (from south america) as the main plant. Also quite worrying that people can easily put their hands in the water. But overall it is a visually very nice tank and I guess people won't care for the discreppancies...
The tank with tiger fish and african arowana is quite nice, but the fish look still a bit stressed and the polypterus didn't look very healthy (I was not the only one noticing it, other visitors were also commenting)
 
The Tigerfish tank is part of the River Nile zone. The 2 African zones are so small and close together that they appear to be just one zone.
