most gars are quite docile when they are well fed.
i dun forsee any problem if u meet the 2 reqiirement. 1) comm gars of similar sizes...too big diff, the smaller pc is gonna becum a feeder 2) make sure they are well fed... a hungry fish is a angry fish. Btw, watch out for your bioload...their shit is :eek |

A bit boring for me to see a comm of gars,mixture of breed and other types of fish will be nice.
Dont think your will have any problem to comm the cubans except bio load. |

The only danger i can think of is when its long mouth try to snatch food with another gar will cause some injury.
One thing i discover is my gars dont eat another smaller gar although it is at bite size,anyone experience it also.I ever comm a 6" gator gar with my pair of19" tropical gar,it will attack even a 7'' pb but just ignored the gator. |
