Alligator Gar and Red Tail Catfish

[swomley93]

Just an update on my fish I posed about a while ago the red tail cat is doing great and fattening up real nice, and my gar is eating good, guess it just took some time for him to realize that blood worms are food! (Gar ) at least he knows now so the live food can be here and there

Good news! That looks a lot more like a Florida gar than a gator gar.

How big is the tank?

Oh lordy. A red tail catfish and a gar in a 55?

Those fish will outgrow that tank in 3 months or so.

How did you determine that gar is a gator?
