I just found my smallest Florida gar (~3") dead with a broken back and a chunk out of his tail. Based on the chunk missing, I guess that the larger of the two alligator gars (~3.5") decided that the little gar needed to die... :( I definitely didn't expect to see any broken backs because these gars are currently in a 10 gallon aquarium (Stage 1 of Grow-Out).

Now I'm down to nine gars...

nice Kevin! what species did you add?

i have a tenuous addition to our counts, but will wait a while longer before making official changes to the list, haha--
--solomon
 
I believe they are floridas, but the store received them as shortnose gars and a couple have patterns that I would expect of shortnose. Should become clear as they grow which shouldn't take too long. I had picked up 3 on monday and they were noticably bigger than the 5 I picked up today.
