only $0.00 Rocket Gar Hujeta Rocket Gars are a barracuda-like freshwater fish native to South and Central America. Its body is long and thin with the fins set almost at the tail. Rocket Gars are predators. They feed mainly in the upper levels of the aquarium and can be fed slow-sinking or floating foods. Live feeders like guppies or shrimp may be needed at first to trigger a feeding response, but they can usually be weaned onto prepared or frozen foods in time. Rocket Gars can grow very large and should only be kept in a large aquarium with ample filtration that can handle their adult size. While wild Rocket Gars can reach almost 3 feet in length, captive individuals usually do not reach this size. They should not be kept with small fish as they may become food to a hungry gar. Size now in May 2011 are about 2.5 – 3” long |
