Create your own hybrid....

Naturally occurring hybrids?

Yes these are naturally occurring..At one time they where tossed around to be an Eighth species of gar but they are in fact a hybrid.

Natural occurring hybrids of many fish are actually not that rare. Some are just much more spectacular than others.

My newest creation: The Garowana

That's awesome, I'm going to bookmark this thread. I always imagined that there were "wild" hybrids, but could never find anything that was.

Thanks for sharing!!

I know where and when is just a matter of having enough time free......
These are popping up as naturally reproducing in a specific locality.

No worries Jordan I'll surely tell you when we go after these

That sounds awesome, I'm going to hold you to it.

There are bunches of them actually...
These pics show what very well was a Shortnosed X Longnosed hybrid. Someone I do know that has one has confirmed it but I still call it suspected..

This fish is affectionately know as Lepisosteus medius or the Medium nosed gar in our circles...
