GATF update

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Pristine gatf, wish mine still had their tail hooks.. Keeping a group almost inevitably loses them for me. Keep it up! I'd like to see more updates as he gets bigger. I think my large one is pushing close to 18/19" and the smaller two are close to yours now.

thats awesome!!! how long did it take to get to 18/19 bro?:) i can't wait till mine gets that big!!!
 
My big GATF, which I call scarface since he/she is somewhat blind in one eye from a fight with my VATF when it was smaller then the VATf has grown surprisingly fast. From 10" or so to 18-19" within a year. My two smaller ones have grown much slower.. Only from 6 to 10.5" in just under a year. I'll snap up some new pix and show you. Scarface has surpassed the VATF in both length and width now.. But still gets spanked by the VATF. Lol

Nice! Thanks for the info man! My theory with GATF's is that they grow at a bit slower rate than say our "usual" monsters, but they grow at a more consistent rate for extended periods of time (unlike ones that slow down from 12" or so).

I love the name scarface!!! I had to sell my VATF because he was the one who was getting beat up by my GATF :(
 
A question here (never kept GATF) before:

Besides being skittish, are they jumpers as well?
