another florida/spotted would also be an ideal tanmate.
hope this helps
just like my 4 Florida spotted gars(9-10") have 2 more in a grow out tank (got them when they were 3" and for free)and they are 6"ish i guess and will wait till they reach at least 8" before they go in with the othersxander13;1683917; said:the cubans here don't seem to be aggressive?
a shoal of spotted/florida gar is always a sight to behold![]()

gator gar and cubans also are not for beginners. cubans are very sensitive to water parameters and gator gar just get huge and are very aggressive.
longnose can be very tricky to keep and sould probably be kept by the more experienced gar keepers.
if you can find a tropical gar that would be your best bet as a tankmate as long as price and availability dont become an issue.
