I had a alligator gar like 5 yrs ago that ate Tetra JumboMin. Its hard to get them to eat pellets or sticks if theyve been eating Feeder fish. but theyll probally eat anything if you starve them.
 
but do u all just feed them on pellets only..... or pellets plus other feeders....

advice needed!!! but if want to feed them pellets , how long do i need to starve them, and what type of pellets u all feed(brand)???
 
All four of my current gars and several I've had in the past have all fed on pellets. :)
 
wow, the respond for pellet eating gars is good, looks like i'll keep starving him then..looks like it's just a matter of time..thanks buds :thumbsup:
 
it took me awhile but i got my longnose gar eating shrimp pellets and freeze dried brine shrimp so far. gonna keep trying other stuff though.
 
mine eats cichlid gold pellets size large
