All the three of them are still doing great! I'm surprised as to how slow the smaller ones are growing tho'...

The big guy has a 135 for himself now

Took some pics from my SLR today of the ATFs
Little guy 1 @ 6"



Little Guy 2 @ 6", he has damaged his snout a little by bumping against the glass :/ Hope it heals.



And The Big Guy @ 10-11" tip of the snout to tail tip:

And here is the full tank shot of the Big guy, keeping the decor simple with a strong flow:

Did you comm the little guys or? Is the plan to comm all of them in the end or? Looking good though, keep up the good work.

Thank you, moe. I have them all in separate tanks.

After reading a lot about an atf community, I've learned that there are very few people who have successfully kept a pack of atfs together long term. So, I'm a little hesitant in trying it out at the moment. My plan is to move my big guy to my 240 after he gets to about 14" and then use a divider in my 135 to house the two small ones in there. And depending on how they react to each other I might take the divider off.

But yes, ideally, I would love to have a pack of ATFs in my big tank and 'ideal' is a hard thing to do in our hobby .
