Default Communal Pokies

Hi all , I have had my communal pokie tank setup for a year or so now, they are doing so well together , they are all very fat and approx 7 - 8 inches.

I have had them together since they were tiny spiderlings ....

Anybody else keep pokies together ?

Thanks

Steve

I tied it with 3 Fasciata slings and ended up with one fat as hell in there and tried it with 2 Rufilata and had the same result.

Gonna hopefully try some H.Incei next hoping for better luck.
