Gar with Pleco

[Jayc]

Hi,

I have a 13” Florida Gar in with my peacock Bass and I’m struggling to feed him. I have another tank I could house him in but it contains plecos ranging from 3 to 8”
... would the smaller Plecos be safe or end up Gar food?

Thanks

Could end up as gar food. If eneough hiding spots and the gar is well fed then might be able to get away with it.

My 14" Florida gar has no issue with my 5 inch telco and even 3 inch discus
