At beat, you can expect an inch a month out of the gatf. Half an inch per month is more likely thouggh.

I can't speak to the odoes.

My gatf is around 14 inch and over 2 years old and my odeos have gone from 2 inch to 7-8 inch in about 3 -4 months I think your odeo will out grow the gatf fast but eventually like 3 years from now your gatf will catch up

Paul Skelton (freshwater fishes of Southern Africa) states a rapid growth of Odoe with maturity in their second year at 8-10''. He lists H. vittatus to mature at 2-3 years at 12-16''

That should help you, even if it's vittatus and not GATF

Would you be willing to share your thoughts on the odoes in the pike characin sticky that's under construction in the Edit Forum? I started it but with the move that I have going on, I just don't have the gumption to get at it, especially with the goonch thread that I'm also working on.

I'd be honored
I'll make sure to find a few minutes to draft something.
