I caught a motoro in Peru and I hand carried it home,man it was fun carring it around the airplane and through customs in Peru,Florida,L.A.X. I put it in my 1,500 gallon tank at home.I had Arapaimas in the tank. I was watching one of the and he went straight down and took the ray and shook it by the tail and then let it go.The ray floated down and was dead when it hit the bottom. I will not mix those fish together again. What a lost.

I really want to take a trip to South America and see how these things really live, and I'd like to bring one back.

What sort of things do you have to do with customs?
 
You should consult fish and game....
 
that's a close call for your gar! lives to fight another day.. :)
 
So basically dont keep a fish any smaller than the ray with them i bet there would be no bad outcome if you kept that ray with an 18" gar
 
18in gar can still have its eyeballs sucked out!!!!
