Can I mix a GATF(4.5in)with 2(6.5in)fire ell with 3(2.5in)oscars,1(5.5in)marble goby,4(5in)paroon sharks,2(4.5in)arowanas with no problem?all fish length are estimated!
thank you in advance guys
 
Oh yeah and at the LFS the GATF is with many other fish like a (3in)gulper catfish.
and I also have 2(3.5in)datnoids and (3in)peackock bass

I'd imagine with the growth rates of the Aro, PBass, Paroon, Marble Goby and the O's there might be a problem in short order, especially with the O who might try to bully the GATF and the PBass, Aro and Goby who may try to prey on the GATF as they grow. Also while I imagine it should be obvious, I'll still mention that these fish will need a very large aquarium long term even if everything else goes perfectly.

As for the LFS it's only a matter of time before that Gulper gets around to eating his tankmates including the GATF.
 
There would definitely be problems with this stocklist. I do not recommend it for the same reasons as above. Way different growth rates, different levels of aggression/bullying, mouth sizes, etc.
 
So would they all prey on the GATF or would the GATF prey on the other fish....the rest should be fine as I have other plans for the aro,oscars,paroons,and PBass I'm just worried of the aggression issues.
thank you all you who answered
 
The others would most likely beat up on (or actually eat in the case of the faster growing large mouthed fish) the GATF. A 4" GATF is like the size of a silverside/minnow, they're not exactly threatening at that size.
 
The tiger or the other fish. Not both. Combining them at this size will just result in a VERY expensive feeder fish.
