Hi everyone, I am new to this site and just got back into this hobby. I love gars. They are so primitive and cool looking. I currently have two true alligator gars and one spotted gar. Looking for a longnose gar to join em.
Sweet jesus, man! Alligator gars? What size pond you got for that?

I have them in a 240 gallon right now and they are about 12". I bought them when they were babies and have raised them to this size in a 70 gallon tank and that was over one year. If you manage your feeding rate, you can have these behemouths for a long time in 240 gallon tank. Most people overfeed their fish for the enjoyment of watching them engulf food down. It actually is healthy for fish to go through periods of fasting as this is a natural occurance in the wild.
