[hi.dasilvab]

Hostgator is requiring me to remove Cloudflare, NameServers
I have added hostgator name server as NSs in my DNS record.

How can I finish this setup?

You cannot change the nameservers of a domain registered with Cloudflare Registrar as using Cloudflare requires using those nameservers. This is indicated at the time the domain is purchased or transfered.

Normally you can use the Cloudflare DNS to point to your hosting using A/AAAA/CNAME records so you can ask for those from your host (click the “or try connecting with a DNS A record” link in your screenshot).

If they really do need you to change the nameservers you will need to transfer the domain out of Cloudflare to another registrar.

Thank you SJR. I added A, Hostgator does not support AAAA. For the CNAME do I need to alias the NS, like stella.ns.cloudflare.com to ns6372.hostgator.com and so forth?

[sjr]

If they only give an A record, just use that.

[hi.dasilvab]

I did, I might have to wait, until it is fully configured.

You many need to set the DNS record to “DNS only” (it is currently proxied) if Hostgator needs to validate it is set correctly.
