Fish Crazy
Yup a 13" gar in a 30 gal is not the way to go...but hey who hasn't made the mistake of buying a without proper knowledge....At a local LFS I've seen baby fish for sale that would not be suitable as they grew up...Again not everybody is a FishNerd. And this is not restricted to Fish Keeping...how many people bought cute puppies only to learn later that the cutie puppy grew up to be a giant Mastiff....I think it's awful...
I saw a listing on LetGo, and it was a person selling a 13 inch Gar in a 30 gallon tank. That is WAY to small for that fish. It will out grow very fast.
I also saw a 10 gallon tank, with 11 gold fish in it. The Goldfish had barely has any room to swim!
