Definitely not a gator gar. But cool anyways! A lot of pet stores label them as alligator gars for some reason

I didn't get it from a pet store, I ordered it from a "Reputable Suppplier" out of Florida. The guy told that they were farm bred "True Gator Gars". Trying to find pictures of a small gator gars was hard, in all of the pictures the fish looked way bigger than this tiny one. It's the smallest one I seen. So do you think that it's just a Florida Gar? Could it be a hybrid, like a "Crocodile Gar"? Thanks for your input!


EDIT***It's just a Florida Gar, glad I only paid $5 and $2 for shipping!***EDIT

Yeah I was going to say just a FL gar. You can tell if they are gators from a really small size. What site did you get him from? That is a dang good deal!

You can tell the gators mostly becauseof their fat short snout. they also have the lateral lined scales unlike any of the other gars. A lot of the fl, long nose, short nose look alike as babies until they are like 10" the gators kind of stand out from the rest lol

Might pick up an ornate tonight...we'll see. I have the room for a teenaged Ornate, but I'd have to wait to see just how long I can keep it...

Thank you!

The tank has been up for a week and a half -there is more sand in it now with a base of Flourite.

I just picked up 2 more, A Palmas Polli (still waiting proper the ID @ MFK) and a Palmas buettikoferi I am driving home with now...(Pet Pourri in Everett has one more and 3 Ornates...)
