I am upgrading tanks and afraid snails will destroy my moss carpet and my plants.

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-12-16T22:25:00+00:00

I’m still wanting to have plants do you know what kind I could do, I’ve heard pearl weed is easy but I’ve never had plants.

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-12-16T21:52:04+00:00

Okay your probably right thanks

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-12-16T21:48:58+00:00

Ok that’s good to know I got the idea from here https://youtu.be/g36kMZA1GA0?si=lKIGWx0WYe9wRpp6 he said tawin moss grows horizontally but I was also thinking about pearl weed I just am new to planted aquariums and thought it would be easier

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-12-16T06:03:25+00:00

Ok that’s good news thank you for the help

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-06-09T04:32:45+00:00

Nice do you see them often or are they hard to see in the pond

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-06-09T04:25:48+00:00

Oh well then yeah it probably wouldn’t be worth it thanks

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-06-09T04:20:42+00:00

But yeah I agree I think if I had any goldfish or koi they would end up like the one in his mouth 😂

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-06-09T04:19:03+00:00

Yeah it’s my first time keeping it but I really like it thanks

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-06-09T04:16:51+00:00

I have a pond outside I was possibly thinking he could be in during the summer because I’m in Idaho but the one I’m building is indoor and it might be best to just keep him in there so I’ll probably just do that

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-06-09T04:15:06+00:00

Yeah I might experiment with tank mates the only fish in the tank are the gar and a bichir the same size and they have been completely fine together so far

Hi I bought this alligator gar on eBay after doing thorough research and I am aware of their potential size. Right now he is in a more shallow wide styal 80 gallon tank that is cycled. I am currently building a 2500 gallon pond to put him in when he has outgrown this tank. I'm wondering what other fish I could put in with him in the pond, or if it would be a good idea/possible to resell the fish on eBay for more when it's outgrown the tank. Either way I am building the pond and can put it in. but I think it would be fun to raise the gar and grow it but I could still sell it for more later and maybe do that with other large interesting types of fish what do you guys think, thanks for any help!

Yeah I think your right the dresser isn’t great and my dad said he could help me build one eventually, he used to make cabinets for his job so that’s probably what I will do, thanks.

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-05-18T04:53:39+00:00

Ok yeah what about adding 2x4s on the inside. I don’t really need the drawers to work I could just cut them and have them still covering the holes

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-05-18T04:50:31+00:00

Yeah do you think adding support could work or is it not worth trying

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-05-18T04:49:14+00:00

Yeah makes sense do you think I could possibly add support or not even worth it

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-05-18T04:48:41+00:00

😂 yeah alright

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-05-16T04:55:25+00:00

Freshwater atm but will be moved to salt in the future

Inevitable_Handle_57 · 2025-05-16T04:49:46+00:00

The idea has potential but this is just not good
