Gar fry ID. Spotted Florida?

[lhamagedon]

The pet store figured they have an Alligator gar.
I would say it's a Spotted/Florida gar.
What do you think?

No takers? I will assume it's a Florida Gar.

cant really tell with the blurry pic. but yes it looks like a F/S.

It is a Platyrhincus / oculatus (Florida / spotted) and it is not a fry by any means, but a Juvenile or Young of the year fish...

I didn't buy this gar but I would say it was about 4 inches. I do have one though and it is about seven inches and growing about an inch a week averaging 25 rosies a week.
