Depends on the size of the fish. If it can fit in the rtc's mouth, it will find it's way in the rtc's mouth. "Never trust a catfish."

And when it happens the RTC looks like he's having a cigar.

It's a gamble.. I keep a hybrid and a TSN with my gar and everyone thus far is doing fine ( I do have plans to move the cats once they outgrow the florida gar) my hybrid and TSN are both about 16" and my smallest gar is 16"... But I keep the pool well fed and under stocked.
