doing this with gars greatly increases the risk of puking up the food which can cause enough stress to kill the gar and/or throw off the water parameters enough to crash the system and...kill the gar.
if you are going to feed on the day of a water change, do it AFTER the water change, it's never advisable to do it beforehand.--
