it is not ridiculous, small gar in big tank can led to broken back, even death gar! They can build up speed in a tank that big then bang their head into the glass, they can't do that in small tanks!
In your situation yes,i meant in general im sorry

With some fish, especially as a juvenile this is a very real possibility.African aros are one thing that comes to mind.
try put a betta in a 200G tank and you will see it starve to death! Some fish that too skittish or not active will not be able to find food in a large tank.
I.E: the bowfin, marble catfish that i see in the 10000 gallon tank at the Cabela's near me, they will stay at 1 spot most of the time and the Aquarium manager have to bring food to their mouth to keep them from starving!
