Tropical & spotted gars

[FlammingWoodChuck]

I am considering getting Either a Tropical gar or a spotted gar and i was wondering if it would be complatible with the fish in my signature????? All but the Silver Aro(my big oscar is an *** and kept picking on it) and the small Sailfin pleco are in a 100g tank and i would put the gar in that tank.

There shouldnt be any problem. Just make sure all of them get to eat when you feed them tho.

Make sure your gar isnt much bigger than your other fish when you buy her. my 2cents

If your oscar is a bully then IMO the gar should be as long as the oscar. Most gars won't bother fish much more than 1/2 their size but there are always exception, esp. with narrow bodied fish.

Yeah, I'd be a little worried about something like the dojo becoming gar food... gars pretty quickly until they hit a certain point (about 12" in these species).
