do you know that piranha are illegal in TX?Nope born and raised in TX.
I knew the 72" would only hold so long hence why I am already looking for something bigger.

Yes I do as well as drinking and driving, smoking pot, street racing and prostitution and those things happen on a daily basis(not by me). They are nothing but bones now so no worries.do you know that piranha are illegal in TX?
Yes, it takes a considerable amount of time for alligator gars to reach truly monstrous sizes, and most hobbyists never have the resources (space, food, water parameters) to allow their gars to grow that large. As for the longnose gars, I highly doubt that they have any 7' specimens that are pure longnose gars; they're more likely alligator gar x longnose gar hybrids.I think they might get up to 10' long if they live in a big enough tank/pond for like 100 years! there is some gars in Texas fresh water fisheries center that they keep for a really long time (I've heard they are there for like more than 30 years) some of them weight more than 200 lbs and about 7 feet long. They also have a long nose gar that almost 7 feet long!
that is a 100% longnose gar! and it's in Texas Freshwater fisheries center, a government top hatchery and education center in Texas so a genetic check is not too hard for them!Yes, it takes a considerable amount of time for alligator gars to reach truly monstrous sizes, and most hobbyists never have the resources (space, food, water parameters) to allow their gars to grow that large.

Interesting. I was always told that said giant longnose gars were simply hybrids rather than pure longnose gars.that is a 100% longnose gar! and it's in Texas Freshwater fisheries center, a government top hatchery and education center in Texas so a genetic check is not too hard for them!
Anyone able to get pics of 7' long nose? I would very much like to see one that size. Should be quite a sight.that is a 100% longnose gar! and it's in Texas Freshwater fisheries center, a government top hatchery and education center in Texas so a genetic check is not too hard for them!
