ATF

so no... i plan on growing out the ATF

for my 180

Not to burst your bubble, but a 180 is nowhere near large enought to safely accommodate an ATF beyond 12". It will be a nervous wreck and be very frustrating to keep. Forget about tankmates, you'll need a bigger tank for the ATF alone. Trust me, I tried it several times and it ended the same way each time.

Why? What is so horrible about an aro?

Majikterror, there is nothing wrong with asian aros except that they are endangered in the wild so got banned in the states, apparently even though the ones being sold overseas are captive bred that is not enough to get the ban lifted.

For a short period of time, I'd say yes. I did. For how long tho??... Depends on a lot of things?... size of ATF? size of others? temperment? etc.?
Now I'm not going to tell you what or what you can't do... but do keep in mind what Tigerfangs said in his post. GL in whatever you decide!
