Awesome! Always a pleasure seeing your update pics :drool:
Thanks

No it is in there. The firs pic with the new pair is with the biggest trop and then the second pic the big trop was on the other end of the tank. The gars in the pic with the new pair are just part of the group. The rest were in other parts of the tank. All the gars except my smallest LNG are in the same tank.

I did some customization and lowered my hob overflow box. I did it by adding some lexon to the back of the box and PVC cementing it to the box. Then I drilled holes to lower the box about 1-1.5". I had to add some rubber tubing to the u-tubes to be sure they wouldn't loose their prime incase the power goes out. Took another few sofa shots of the tank with the new water level. I almost got this tank how I want it, in terms of lighting and filtration.

One of my favorite thing is that eye reflection. Can't get enough of the gars!

They ate northern pike yesterday, found out they love that. Good thing to cause I get a lot of pike while fishing.

Nice! I saw some Floridas today at the LFS and really wanted to pick one up. They were labeled as Gators and were going for $40 so I passed. What's a good price for a Florida?

Floridas average $30 up to 14" or so. Smaller go for $15 or so. A lot depends on were you go. I have got them in at wholesale before.

Thanks I might try and grab 2 this weekend from an LFS that is moving their location. They're selling all their fish cheap and they're priced at $10 per Gar.
