I would want the appropriate amount of current to support a nice healthy forksahlii and I understand the current for that reading the stickies is saying to be up near 8500 gph of flow? I have a feeling it will be too much for a dat to handle but figured I would check to make sure! Tank is a 6'x2'x2.5' 220 gallon.
Unfortunately it is going to be a bare tank as I need the most space possible for the rays. I have seen plenty of dats in tanks with tigerfish and dorado but I have no idea how much flow is in those tanks... I would really like to keep them if they could handle that much flow. There would be a natural dead spot around the middle of the tank where there would be slack in the current, but I don't want them to get blown in circles around the tank when they exit that slack, thus why I am curious as to how much current they are capable of being in? No sense in getting a fish that can't handle it.
. It should be fine if they are big enough.
Ahhh ok that is what I was thinking. They wont start with that much current but will eventually get it when the tigerfish grows some so I figured I would jump right to the end and see if it was even a possibility as they grew older. Thankyou!Well the real question is how big are the dats? If they are small I'd imagine it's a death scentence. If they were bigger like 6 inches+ with a little bit of mass to them I bet they'd be just fine, you will end up with some strong swimming dats
