I have never seen it done in a tank but i know a guy who bred cuban gars in a 100000 pond which was in his backyard.
I don't even think it is possible for a gar to breed in anything less then a 10,000 gallon tank/pond.

It is very possible to spawn them in something much smaller and it has been done.
