Received the alligator gar in good condition. It was active and swimming at the bottom of the tank. I’ve had experience with predatory fish before, and this one is definitely aggressive. Needs a large tank and careful monitoring. Works well with pacu and knifefish in a properly sized setup.
Audrey Hemmings –
The fish arrived live and seemed healthy. I’m not a beginner, so I’m used to handling aggressive species. It’s active and stays near the bottom. I keep it with a pacu, and they don’t seem to fight much. Still requires a lot of space and regular maintenance.
Dominic Poole –
It’s a large predator and not for small tanks. I had to adjust my tank size and add more hiding spots. The fish is aggressive and doesn’t tolerate other fish well. Only recommended for experienced hobbyists with proper setup.
