And shared 6 of those years on the forum

Where'd you get the fake (?) plants?

Nice to see that fish still going strong!

you can find those plants online, they are cheaper and even have free delivery with big enough orders.

Thanks guys. The plants are from Michaels actually. So much cheaper there than any aquarium store.

Thanks. He seems super healthy and active still too. I assume he was a year or 2 old when i got him. He's lived in 5 different tanks, and 6 different homes. ..lol

What's everyone's opinion on adding another gar or 2? I need to find 1 at least 12". Not worried about the current gar bothering him, but my clown knife always seems to have that look in his eye. Even though he's never given me any trouble; he's just large.

Would like to find a spotted if I could.

Great thread and a great accomplishment! Love the gar, don't trust CKs.

The tems and 2 spot orino were added to the tank a few weeks ago. Everyone getting along, no issues. Been doing more frequent water changes. Diet has primarily been floating cichlid sticks and massivore.

I have to say I'm amazed that you still have this fish. I know a buddy of mine still has one of my old gar. He's gotta be 8-10 years old now

Any update on your gar please.
