Instead of climbing in there, get a magnet cleaner. On connects on the outside of glass and one on the inside. Instead of climbing in there you can just move the magnet on the outside causing the one on the inside to clean the algae off the tank

Lovely tank, and I am a huge gar fan! I love them! One thing I noticed though... They seem to be having trouble turning.. Gars need a tank with more width. The decorations also seem more like a hindrance for them as it gives them less space. Not saying it shouldn't be decorated, but it seems it's just decorated in a way that satisfies you and not the fish. If I paid $10'000+ for one of these oddball/hybrid gar.. I would sure as hell make sure it's happy. Just saying is all.

Why not just get a pleco or two, or some snails?
Noel Jones
Noel Jones - 7 years ago
Haha...plecos don't keep aquarium glass clean, no matter what your pet store chains will tell you.  Very few species eat much algae and especially as they get older, their diet becomes more meat based.  Even the species like Bristlenose plecs (Ancistrus sp.) are not obligate herbivores and will definitely hunt down any food missed by the other fish.  Even adding 100 algae eating bristlenoses wouldn't prevent the need for scraping off the acrylic.

Donna
Donna - 7 years ago
Gabriella Tepper-Doran They tend to die off when there's too much water movement ie when the top of the leaves get wet or submerged under water. Try a top piece of a breeder box/net that floats and attach it to the side, put the leaves in there and you will see them grow.

I'm a long time member of the site you linked to (member since 2009), and I've seen lots of people over there with cheap above-ground pools set up in their basements to accommodate gars, big cats, etc..
drgnfrc13
drgnfrc13 - 7 years ago
That trop is also deformed. There isn't any gar species that naturally has that skull shape. It's just a very common injury. If you wanted to, I'm sure you could collect an example of each species with the same deformity. I don't think it can occur through regular stunting (stunting typically means water quality issues, as opposed to space constraints). As for his aquarium size, I think it's fine, to be honest. It's entirely possible that the gator gar may outgrow it in a few years, but if this guy can afford a tank like this, he can afford much larger. There are much cheaper options out there for accommodating massive fish, and I don't see any reason to doubt that he'll do what's best for his fish.
Joshua Fields
Joshua Fields - 7 years ago
Let's say it is a Alligator Gar with a deformation though.. The deformation could have been caused by the fish being stunted.. The tank is not nearly wide enough for a gator gar. You'd think someone that clearly spent this much money on the tank and fish would know that a gator gar will easily reach 6-7 feet in an aquarium; that 5 foot width of the tank would not be nearly enough.
Joshua Fields
Joshua Fields - 7 years ago
You are right, I got my Tropical Gars and Cubans mixed up. This is a large Tropical, but not an Alligator Gar.

https://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/threads/tropical-gar.125247/

Top is a tropical, notice the downward slant of it's snout.
drgnfrc13
drgnfrc13 - 7 years ago
Joshua Fields It's actually an alligator gar, as the subtitle states at 1:22. Also, that isn't true of Cuban gars.
Joshua Fields
Joshua Fields - 7 years ago
drgnfrc13 I believe that is a Cuban Gar. The snouts bend down like that naturally.
drgnfrc13

It looks like it's suffered an injury, probably from ramming into the side of an aquarium at some point. It's really common with gars.

Me regarding my tank: Should I get that shrimp? It's $6.95, I'll think about it for next time.

Yeah, this guy is in a whole different income bracket.
Vicky B
Vicky B - 7 years ago
This is definitely a luxury that can only fit in a large, luxury home. No 1700 square foot home is going to have space for a 17'x5' tank with the equipment and then still have excess walking space not to mention the 4 extremely rare Xanthic gars, I can only imagine how much those are!
patelike
patelike - 7 years ago
I highly doubt you can build this with low paying $10/hr> job. even if you can, it'll probably take a decade of slowly buying the supplies before you even begin putting water in there. This thing will cost about the same as a small house.
Vicky B
Vicky B - 7 years ago
That would mean he's probably a millionaire. I don't know about you but I don't have an extra $200-300 thousand to spend on fish or anything for that matter. 200,000 is 20% of a downpayment for a $1,000,000 home. Some people might spend that money to buy a Lamborghini. Who owns a Lamborghini? Oh yeah, millionaires.
majooismajor

not a millionaire, but you certainly need a good $200-$300 thousand to get the job done right. There is a guy by the name of king of DiY building his own 2000 Gallon tank right now, and he has spend his own 100s of thousands of dollars and he has got some fan donation and corporate sponsors to help him make the large tank and 10, 100 gallon tanks along with his fish room.

you would actually have to be a millionaire to turn this tank into a reef. unless you start with a handful tiny
coral frags. That would probably take a decade to grow into this tank. let alone the lighting and nutrient requirements for a reef tank. and saltwater fish and other fauna being 10x more expensive than freshwater. and you can leave a tank like this alone for 6 months but any saltwater tank needs weekly to almost daily maintenance.

Helveteshit
Helveteshit - 8 years ago
Shouldn't you throw in some sort of Algae eating fish there since you say those big fish won't attack them anyhow? I feel like Siamese Algae Eater would do well since they won't be eaten like the Guppies and they eat most of the Algae. Since I doubt you want a fresh water snail to be crawling around on your windows and structures. Shrimp might work too!

Also, feels like the Filtrations is a bit strained? Maybe increase the turn-over a notch in the future or try look over the potential ability to direct part of your exhaust flow into various spots to deal with it. For example, using flexible tubing and have it peek out from the soil at some locations within the cave and such to create a gentle drift of water here and there so you can push the contents out to your filtration better.

Your tank and all that, but just saying what I feel like in regards to improvement for the tank and fish :) Plus it might help you deal with the algae scraping each six months to some degree since you already seem to have a good natural filtration.
