Hello everyone!

I have a tank thats 220x70x70cm (7.2x2.2x2.2Feet) around 1000L that I'm runing cichlids in at the moment. But the new plan is to sell of all the cichlids but the Satanoperca Eartheaters and get me 2 or 3 Florida or spotted gars.

So should I get 2 or 3 gars for the size of tank that I have or is it too small and Only one is possible and do they work well with the cichlids that almost always stays on the bottom of the tank?
In the tank i have fine sand, some driftwood and some easy plants. (Vallisnera and Anubias)

This is my first predatory fish I'm planing on buying so have no experiens only know what I have read so far and they seem to be peacfull to other fish if they are not in meal size but reallt want to get your ppls opinion first.
