Hi i have a 5 ft by 2ft W and 2ft H.

i currently have: 2x spotted Gar, pair of Gold Severuns, feng feng and 2x Poly ornartapinis.
i also have 3x Heckelii growing out in a diffrent tank.

i would really like to have a Hoplarchus psittacus.

and anything else can recomend, maybe a Pike?

That's a 150, and I'm pretty sure your gars will outgrow it , and I've heard it's never a good idea to mix gars with cichlids.. Sell the gars and you could add a couple more cichlids.

I have had the Gars in there for nearly year now and neither bother each other.

If the Gars were not in there what would you recomend?
