Would like input from ATF keepers

If you look closely at the video you'll notice that some of the smaller GATF have smashed in noses. That tells me they've been running into something. Some other ones have slightly misshapen heads too. No one said it's not possible to raise ATF in smaller tanks. However will they be happy and healthy?

I do notice that none of them have ripped fins or slashes down the body. Maybe the presence of constant feeders cuts that down. With my group of ATF one of them at any given time always had a ripped fin or cut from fighting.

The only thing I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around is 40,000 gph worth of current??? (50X tank volume?) I picture a jet ski running balls out in the tank and all the fish plastered on the opposite end..... lol

Have you ever seen the episode of River Monsters where he caught that GATF was a raging river with current like Niagara falls? I seriously doubt you can have too much current with these guys.
