mad ness;3659547; said:yea can't rely on color differences as much for smaller fish. but there's some things one can look for. ID'ing between gatf and others is easier.
gatfs; can see slight lateral lines but next to a vatf, the difference is apparent.
shape of mouth. gatfs are have blunter snouts, like a dog, while vatfs/batfs are more streamlined like a beak.
Tail of the younger gatfs are round where as vatf/batf to a point.
channarox;3659651; said:i was thinking it too.
another thing to consider is the size of the tail.
GATF have much larger tails than other species.
Tigriuns;3659658; said:but the funny thing is this atf have no lining on it body...
channarox;3659663; said:it doesnt?
seems like it does in the pics.
Tigriuns;3659681; said:Dun have... anyway atf is in season... might as well keep them all again haha...
fatf,gatf,vatf and this perhaps something new
to me vatf growth rate is way faster than gatf but i like the dog look on gatf
channarox;3659690; said:hmmm.yeah.
gotta love ATFs,but they grow so damn slow.![]()
Tigriuns;3659697; said:hope to train them in eat pellet..haha feeder really cost me
channarox;3659701; said:shouldnt be too hard.
