So what is the coldest that a gator gar can live in the wild, how cold can get in nature
 
i would say like high 60's?

dunno though because if it gets really cold they kinda just hybornate [spelling]
 
i would say for an extended period of time the high 50's would be ok. i'm sure solomone or richard could answer this best. since they are the gar guys.
 
so 50 is about 10 degrees celcius , so i probly will bee able to keep my gatar gar in outside pond

maybe...dont hold me to that. my response is not comming from experience. thats just my guess.
 
I dont know about that...I live in Oklahoma and they are everywhere here. It got down this winter to the single digits for nearly 2 weeks straight. THe rivers had a thick layer of ice all over them. I would guess that the rivers and creeks were in the 30's.
