Well that depends on what size the oscar is vs. the gar!! I had a gar once
in a seperate tank when I got tired of having to buy live fish all the
time
I put it in the tank with the oscar. Within minutes it was in the oscars
mouth sticking out. Kept him busy for the better part of a day though.

Ok, I saw this 6 in Needlenose Gar (Xenetodon Cancila) at PetsMart,
and wondered if it would be compatible with my 4 in Tiger Oscar, 4
giant danios, and 1 plec. I have the 50 gallon tank at 75 F and am
currently feeding freeze dried krill, bloodworms, tubifex, and
tropical flakes (not all at once though
:-) I haven't found much info on the web or in fish books. I
understand that they will eat fish (but so does Oscar and can be fed
krill and pellets. How big do they get? Will they quarrel?



I don't think tubifex worms are good to give to Oscars.. Don't know about
the Gar.. Although a really intresting fish... Seen a 12 inch Gar recently
housed with a couple of 10 inch Pacu's.. Talk about contrast...
