So i last my hujita gar a few weeks ago.

And im looking for a new gar/pike.

and i know the smallest true pike species get 2 feet long. and i have a 90 gallon tank. i have 2, 7 and 9 inch bichers. other than that ii don't have to worry about the other fish.

What other pike/gar looking predatory fish can i get?
 
the only gars for that aquarium would be spotted Florida gar only one.

Not to be confused with the reg. spotted gar. That grows huge.

The other would be the needle nose gar has to be kept 3 to a school.

This fish is considered on the difficult side.

The other fish you may look into is the cigar fish family. Anostumus anostumus.

I use to import the south American brown gar. A baby was 12" in long.

I don't think its in the aquarium trade any more.
 
I think i should clarify. im not loking for a true pike of gar. as all of them get much to big. But fish like the hujita gar, which is actually a charicterin, is what im in the market for.
