I'm starting to plan out my set-up for a grow-out system and not sure how to handle growing out fish from different hatches. For example, after I move my first group of fish to the grow-out system, then hatch the second group a couple weeks later. Can I then just add the second group to the same tank with the first group creating a mixed group in terms of size/age?
 
From my experience, as long as they are eating the same type and same size of food, they can share a tank. I feed them lot of food so they never have to compete (much) to get food. Aggression were never a problem among hundred of them in 40g breeders.

When they were younger, sub 20-30 days old, I do have each batch in their own 10g tank though.

If they are only a few weeks apart, it shouldn't make too much of a difference. I've had clowns in a 40b growout that were about a month apart and there were no problems.
