Carnage, by ATFs

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Ahh, yes... pic sure does spark back memories of my old ATF!! :idea:

My forskalli took out a pair of tin foil barbs, hi-fin banded shark, planiceps, and others... :22_yikes:
 
superb. I love Tiger Fish.

I was actually intent on getting one until I realized how big a tank you need for them. I've always found them fascinating. Got a mouth like a dog with nails as teeth.

One thing that did surprise me though is the fact that they're not as aggressive as they look, they look so insane I was expecting them to be at least as aggressive as a wolf fish.

I thought they would attack like-sized tankmates.
 
well the couple of owners I talk to had relatively small ones, 8/9 inches I think. When I have the cash and room I would love a huge tank with a couple of vittatus.

Btw - how can I get access to view attached images? :)
 
Yes, they become more aggressive as they get larger, not only with each other, but other tankmates. They also seem to realize that they have some real biting or shearing power and put it to use, sometimes on fish you wouldn't expect them to eat.
