i have some atfs. there tank mates are 2 gars which are a little biggerthan them but not big enough yet. a blunt nose gar, african pike, 2 channel cats and 2 bluegill, everything is close to same size. my smaller tigers around 3" to keep them from fighting each other i but some bala sharks in there that are same or bigger than them. i feed my atfs shrimp and live goldfish. but i have a quarentine tank for the golfish to help with the trashy gold fish

I keep a single ATF, so I added some schooling fish and he seems to be fine. He makes sure he gets more food than the 2 giant danios, 1 congo tetra, and 4 gachuas. I would suggest adding school fish such as giant danios (kinda aggressive at first, ATF will own) some bala sharks, any smaller barb is fine (they grow very fast) or any school fish. Since ive added the danios, my ATF has been much much more active (wont sit in the corner anymore) and eats like a pig, I think it forces the ATF to eat more, since there is competetion. Just my opinion.

what i have been told and it works is when u buy school fish to go with him or them make sure they are shinny fish like the bala shark. i dont know if it keeps them to confused on which one to go after or they think its a school of there own. you would haft to ask wes from rarefish bc he is the one that told me that
