How big? You need to do as big a water change as possible. Chances are that the ammonia is well over 1ppm by now, doing only a 50% water change isn't enough to bring it down to a safe level.

I took the water sample to my local fish store and they tested it for me. They didn't give me the exact details but they said the water was fine.
they also gave me 2 replacement fish for the 2 that died last week so now there are 5 fish in the tank.

putting more fish in an uncycled tank was pretty stupid, but at least you can order yourself a test kit now and sort it yourself
This is the exact problem with going to a fish store to get your water tested. Personally, I'd like to know what they mean by "fine". Specifics are necessary. I'm thinking that the levels are above 0, and that is not "fine". Do a water change, keep feedings to an absolute minimum... no more than the fish can eat in 30 seconds or less and feed them no more often than every other day.
MOre tigers, first. They need to be kept in large groups to keep the aggression down and kept within themselves Adding 4 more would be a good idea. That would be best done slowly, maybe 2 at a time and two weeks in between. After that, it gets interesting. Tigers can be a bit nippy. To get a different look, if that is what you want, I'd get some green tigers or albino tigers instead of just the regular ones. Unless you prefer the look of the regular. Then, you could look into kribs. They would probably be a really nice option with the tigers. The tigers stay to the top mostly, and the kribs to the bottom. Not sure about the kribs in the 90L though... someone else will need to advise on that.
