What can be kept with a florida gar?

Hello everyone I've just bought a florida gar. He's still 3-4 inches little boy. So what can be kept with him long term? Can a tiger shovelnose live with him? Or anything else? I'm open-minded with all the suggestions. I've an experience keeping an alligator gar I named cupcake, he was a beast.

Your florida gar will be far slower growing than the Ali gar and less aggressive too

I have 4 floridas ranging from 12-18" they live very peacefully with rays, fire eel, peacock bass, oscars arowana etc

They just chill out together as a group dont chase anything or show aggression other than being a bit snappy at feeding time trying to get food with their long jaws

Great fish they are

Agreed, my alligator gar ate a silver arowana that was the same size as it. Those videos that said alligator gars can be kept with oscars and silver arowana are BS.
