I don't think so. I've seen gar and aba aba in a tank before, and it wasn't even half the size of 10k. I would just grow the pimas and gators on a bit first, so when the aba aba hit's three feet, the others are 5' plus.

make sure the aba aba is the smallest cuz they can be psychos and they can do a lot of damage

I got a 25" aba aba and it's living me my bichirs (9-21"), aros, gars, snakeheads and lungfish. Aba aba doesn't seem to bother anybody. However it hates cichlids which is weird as it's the only fish that it love to attack.

Aba Abas and Gator Gars are known for being super aggressive. However, there are always possibilities to keep them in a community as King-eL has. It can work out, but the tank size would have to be huge for those fish to be together.
