keeping big freshwater fish vs reef shark?

[Frank Castle]

Aquariums have kept them for years at a time in saltwater,however they sometimes take a liking to slow moving reef fish such as triggerfish

what aquariums? All the captive Gator Gar i have seen were in freshwater

Several aquariums in Texas and California used to have em in saltwater shark tanks,they also occur in saltwater near shore in the wild,but are rarely documented in deep water.

i follow ya, but i need the actual names of the aquariums to research it properly

As a new Gar-owner i want to learn everything i can about these critters

One of them was six flags in California (it wasn't six flags back then,it was called something else),I forgot what the one in Texas was called.

Are you talking about what was formerly known as MarineWorld in Cali? (Now called Six Flags Discovery park)
