Saw a pretty active Florida gar today at my lfs.. 45 dollars was the price for it. Is that a fair price?
 
IDK about in Houston, but $45 seem a bit high! there is a guy in Corpus Christi that have a farm and some pond with a lot of spotted gar for sale for $20, the problem is you have to drive or wait until he come to Houston!
 
No not a fair price for one that size at most the price should be 25
 
I'd buy it if it's in good shape and is feeding on something other than live food; sometimes it's worth paying a little more for the peace of mind of knowing that the gar is healthy. If gars are hard to come by in your area, then it might not be too unreasonable when you take the seller's costs into account, too.

They only feed it live feeders. The gar was pretty active though.. It would follow my finger whenever I moved it across the glass. I'm assuming thats a good thing.
