My favorite gar species I've kept them since 05' especially if you have a few together they almost play together following one another around the tank. Does Aquascape still have any? That was a year ago almost that they came in

Primo had them a year ago that's where I got my small ones. And that's where Aquascape got theirs from. I'd be surprised there's any more left. They are rarely available in the US
