But wouldnt that be on the bottom too,id like some mid swimmers ideally,the gars do obviously swim about but not all the time as they chill with the bichirs on the bottom too,im going to try a few frontosa and see how it goes,any danger to the gars and they will be out.

Fronts won't bother anything they can't swallow...but they usually hang out the bottom of the tank. Their method is eat sleeping little fish.

Ok,well there isnt any little fish in there so that problem shouldnt arise,im going to get 3 or 4 and see how it goes,but they will be big enough not to be a snack.

I dont want anymore dats as i wont have room when they grow up,plus if i got some and they hide all the time then that will be pointless and expensive.

one thought is more gars. i have 7 in my 180gal right now and there is always some action. my cuban and lng are all over. bowfins are nice to have one of in that tank, they are kinda active. what is the tank decor? after i added a wood pile the activity of my gars has increased dramatically!
