Good afternoon everyone,
I'm pretty new here and just wanted to ask a question to some of the experienced people. For the last few months I have been growing out a GATF in a 55 from 3" to roughly 5.5" now. I was just wondering when you think it would be okay to add him to my larger 120 gallon growout with a 7" VATF, a 7" Kelberi PBass, and a bunch of silver dollars. I just want to be extra sure its alright to move him because the VATF has a tendency to attack and kill slightly smaller fish than him (3X 4.5" Tinfoil barbs), and I really dont want to make a meal out of my golaith.
Ill have pics of them both up soon.

Thanks in advance
 
If your vatf attacks smaller silver fish then wait a couple more inches to make sure its not a problem. Only issue is a rapidly growing gatf may hurt himself in a small tank. Can you bump the vatf into his next upgrade?
