Angry Spoted gar

[raubiy]

Whay are my spoted gar's so angry.
I always haused them with tank mates. But now they must be alone.
It's not mater if fish are small or big they rip off everything.
1 moth ago 6x Hypostomus Plecostomus all with riped tail's + some blood wounds in 1 night... They was together with no problem for 1.5 month.
Then 2 x Iridescent shark killed.
I like them i accept that. I will forever hause them alone.

But whay. It's just question for me, when i see so many pictures + videos of them in comunity tank.
When i feed them they rip of frozen food in seconds. And go crazy for pelets too...
Whay this agresion. They are not afraid of anything. They even attack my fingers xD Always battle MODE ON xD

what you need is some dither fish. silver dollars and tin foils are good they are really fast so you don't really need to worry about them being eaten.

Dither fish is the worst idea - they will just get torn up.

Maybe its a spatula ?
My spottet gars have never been agressive.
Do you have a picture ?
