While my Florida gars are not in the general vacicity of aggressive as my two longnose garss, I would still not consider the Floridas to be a "non-agressive" fish.
I have never kept or had intrest in Arows, but I guaran-ar$e-tee that my longnose gar(s) would shred the Arow or die trying.
As for meal size: I was freaking shocked and appalled by the larger of my two LNG's (~14" at the time/ now > 2') eating a Florida gar that was close to 10"!
As far as Gar attacking other fish only to eat: I have found that to be on the verge of a bold faced LIE, and at absolute bare minimum a TOTALLY ASANINE STATMENT! I had a small (~5") florida gar brutally destroy TWO considerably larger asian needlefish. Just good old fashion murderous aggression at its very best! Nothing that could be remotely misconstrued as consumption was even attempted!!
