i have a 7.5 inch gatf would it be okay if i put a baby gatf around 2.5-3 inchs would my other gatf eat him and i also have a 6 inch idno datnoid and a 6 inch bircher
 
I'm pretty sure the baby would end up inside one of the other fish. I wouldn't do it.
 
I had a 6" with a 8 and 10" gatf. I found that there was more fighting between the big and medium one. I think that one that small would end up as dinner tho. Or get wounded real bad. I wouldnt go smaller then 5" with the one u have. And if urs is only on feeders id leave it by its self till u get it on pellets or frozen

I say just leave it in a grow out and feed more than the others to increase growth rate. After adding a few inches, add it during a water change.

+1, look online for a cheap temporary tank to grow him out a bit. Power feed that atf until he hopfuly catches up in size to the other atf.
