Aloe Vera - type un-identified.

I have had this plant for about a year and 4 months and it was growing very well it has 2 babies and I am wondering if that is killing the main one I tried seperating them but once I noticed how conjoined they were I was to scared to harm them, needing some wise advice, the babies and the mom seem to be shrinking but they are rooted really well there not cold they get fed and watered. Just wondering if the babies are to much for it, and how do I save the babies?

Same advice again. Don't worry if they are kept cool and dry and shrivel in winter. If they are damp and shrivel the roots have died.
Succulents can cope with dryness far better than most plants, here's a shot of what a really shrunken plant looks like (not an Aloe, but related), so yours have a long way to go before you need worry about them dying of lack of water:

Okay thank you, I appreciate it. Also was wondering if the babies are causing havoc or are they okay in there? I don't want to seperate them as I don't want to risk any of them dying but it seems there suffocating the mom.

The babies ("offsets") are fine, they are doing the main plant no harm. Eventually it may all end up looking too crowded, but for the time being I think a cluster of heads will look great.

Okay thank you !

Also what type is this ?

[BlackWolf77]

Well it has been a while and I have never had this any other winter but there shrinking still would it being under artificial light constantly be why?

They don't shring because they are in light, they shrink because they are warm and not taking in any water.
They don't take in water beacuse they are too dry or because the roots have died, as for your other post, check the roots.

Yes I checked the roots and they weren't getting any water. thank you!
