My tank is 72Lx27Wx31H. How many can I keep for life? Can I mix with thin bars?

Start off with 10 tigers then when they are 10 inch plus thin down to 6

Indos get to 18 inch plus
Ntt peak at about 15 - 16

Dats are always gonna beef with each other. This will typically stop when they get bigger and the size difference between them is more significant.

At what size will IT dats stop beefing with each other? Is there anything I can do to tone down the aggression?

They won't stop fighting if they are all the same size

If you get big size differences they will prob never fight

If you had say just 2 and one was 15 inch and the other 5 they will get along great

Once the 5 inch starts to catch up in size to say 12 inch the 15-16 inch one who used to show it no interest will turn on it

I have seen this many times before with my big ST as he has stopped growing at 24 inch he is fine with anything 10 inch but once they grow to 15-16 inch he hunts them down
