i have the same thing, almost. i had two 6-8 in needlefish with a 3"in fl gar and nothing went wrong. now the gar is 6"in long
it is a needle nose and i am aware that it isnt a real gar and i know that the spotted will get way bigger then him but so far so good, he has left him alone
i wouldnt suggest keeping needlefish with gars anyways.they are way to aggressive at feeding time and the gar will have a hard time getting its share. i have heard that needlefish and gars have completely different husbandry and if you try to keep both one of them will not survive due to different care requirements. however they a vey interesting species i just would keep or suggest keeping one with any gar species and the fact that the needlefish will eventually be an expensive feeder if not separated in time.
