A guy in my local area is selling all his fish just because he's done with the hobby. I haven't got it yet, but I will keep you posted. He's got a 12" Florida gar, basically he's said "just come and get it". He has said $5.00 but also implied free. Pics forth coming......maybe. If I get it. He will go in with My other 12" Florida gar who I've called "Danny Elfman Gar" I guess the new one will be Bridget Fonda gar? Nobody gets this I'm sure
 
i dont get the jokes, but i'd swoop up that gar in a heart beat. 5 bux, thats a steal. post pics after u pick it up
 
Here are some pics of my $5.00 Gar.

That's a nice, healthy-looking gar! Is that an Oscar in the foreground?:nilly:
 
Yes you do see two oscars. But they don't belong to me. This is a picture of his tank. He posted an add on craigs list with pictures. So I just used them. I asked him if he knew they were illegal, and as I suspected, he had no idea. He got the fish from a *** guy. I don't why I mention that, its just that he told me the *** guy gave the gar a real feminine name like "Trisha", a name that he said he could never use with respect to the gar.

Illegal? In your area? Please explain.
 
Florida gars and alligator gars are illegal in many states including washington state for ecological reasons. They are a north american fish, so they don't want people possibly messing with the eco system
 
Wow I didnt know they were illiegal. Do you know if they are legal in oregon?
That is a steal for $5, I say get it if you have a big enough tank. If you do get it, have a fun time netting that thing without getting soaked.
