Im thinking of getting a 6in yellow gar to put in with my 4 in aro. Do you think it will harm the aro? Ive had a spotted gar before and they seem to be very peaceful fish

great advise as usual! just to add in my experience, i had a 7" spotted gar bite the tail off my 5"silv aro and killing it. the aro might look too big to be eaten by the gar as a whole, but their tapered tails look appetising.E_americanus;2511687; said:yes, what is a yellow gar exactly, and what kind of arow do you have? if the gar is even comparable size to the arow it may try to eat it if the arow doesn't grow fast enough. at that small of sizes the gar/arow combo is ill-advised as they seldom grow at the same rate in a tank at that size. i would wait until the arow is bigger OR just raise them separately until they're each about 8-10" (which, in both cases, shouldn't take more than a month or two)--
