Baby Alligator Gars

[nomadofthehills]

My friend has a 3000g tank and wants a baby alligator gar. Anyone know where to get them?

i guess any lfs could have them. just make sure if you see one labeled gator gar you know what one looks like. there are many cases of mis labeled gars. typically they label floridas as gators. i think E_Americanus or Polypterus would be the best two to tell you where to get one.

i've seen them in stores... might cost you a pretty penny

They are not going to be available for a bit. Around June maybe late May they should be around. Some Asian produced fish, if things are going well, might be around earlier.

So do you have some of these fish already that are available (Regular or White) or do we get to keep looking at the one or two pics of your ribbons ?????
