Gar + Oscar = ??????

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I kept Spotted Gar and Tiger Oscar together without any problem. I never seen them fight or picking on each other before. Gar is about a foot long and Oscar is about 5 inches. What I think is that Oscar won't bully or pick on fish that is twice their size. Well, I don't know, I think it depends on what kind of fish you are housing with Oscar I guess. If Gar and Oscar were the same size or Oscar is bigger, maybe Oscar will do some damage to the Gar or totally kill it, depends on how aggressive Oscar is. From my own experience, you can safely house them together but you gotta make sure that your Gar is at least twice bigger than your Oscar.

You really just do not get it.... Yep have fun and please do not bother complaining when your deformed fish are shredded by this gar should you put them together. I have explained this very clearly and if you do not get it... well thats your fault..

New or not to this realm there are rules and you can not just wish the negative away because you wish or hope someone else will tell you what you want to hear rather than the truth... Really rejecting the existence of truth is not going to change the fact that a gar is going to own that deformed fish.
