I think you saw the darker mid body spotting and the blurred wide appearence of the nose as the traits for tropicals. I knkw there is a few available now. I think aquascape has some?


My experience gars and bass don't mix well. Especially tropical gars. Mine were very agressive eaters.

Having said that I will have to temp house my shortnose with my bass until the pond is built.

Nice pickups. To the o.p

I've always kept gars with my bass they seem to get on really well. I've had the gars from 3" and they only feed on pellets hikari gold same food my Cichla eat.
