I'm guessing you bought a gator gar. Sorry for your losses.

To the OP. Now this combo can work depending on the tank size, size of the fish and the type of gar you plan on keeping with them and of course the temperament of your larger fish. Keep in mind that dats don't grow as fast as the other fish you plan on keeping.

i have a 15" and 10" gar with three 10" silvers and a 9" mono. no problems, combo has been working for a couple months now
so? a few months doesnt mean squat.

This combo(pbass with gar, or silver aro with gar) is suggested against.
 
ok. the only chance in heck you have of them working is the fact that u have a florida.

chances are u still might end up with at the min bite marks and shredded fins
