Hey everyone, I've had two Alligator Gar(Seems to be one male one female due to difference in size) in my tank for almost a year now. I always watch them when I go to sleep or when I just have nothing that absolutely NEEDS to be done and I've never noticed anything strange until now. Earlier today I was watching my gar after I added some live food(small Bream) and the smaller(suspected male) gar snagged a small bream and just held onto it. I know that gar do this when they have a very active prey in an attempt to rid the prey of excess energy but the gar didn't swallow it. Rather than swallow it the gar brought the prey over to the larger(suspected female) gar and released it after it had been drained of any excess energy other than an occasional twitch. The smaller gar let it go right in front of the larger gars snout and swam off to let the larger gar eat in peace. I am just curious as to whether this is just a sign of submission to the larger gar or is it a sign of bonding(I'd originally assumed a courtship but they aren't near old enough for a sexual relationship yet). Also they will occasionally rub across each other and hold one another slightly out of the water... I've never read anything on either of these occurrences so any advice is helpful and highly appreciated. Thanks a lot to all who even read this and I'm in debt to anybody who has potential leads to my curiosity! Thanks all!
