He made it through the night and the other Gar seems to like him as well, soon as I put him in the other Gar is always by his side, usually under him

Not that I'm aware of yet, I'm headed out in the next few days to catch some minnows, etc. in the creek. He is still black, moves around the tank pretty often and the two hang around each other.
