Hi seniors,
I am a newbie just recently joined this forum and have several questions regaring alligator gars.
I am planning to keep 4 alligator gars (about 10" size) in a 94 gallons bare bottom aquarium. I am planning to keep them there for max. 6 months before I build a bigger tank in my house.
The questions are :
1. As I know that 94 gallons (59" x 20" x 20") is too small to keep these gars for years, would it be okay for about 6 months ?
2. My water is hard, 10dH + 10KH is it okay for gars ?
3. The temperature would be around 27 - 30 Celcius , is it okay ?
4. What is the ideal way to transport the gars ? Do I need to starve them for 1 day prior ?
Please excuse my bad English, tried my best anyway.... hehehe
Thanks in advance,
