I was looking at the pics and really saw nothing i really recognized, but..
Pic nr5 shows what looks like a florida with an extra large snout.
My guess would be that that's a spotted then.
 
There are 3 species shown. Both of you are correct.

Shortnose gar
Spotted gar
Florida gar

Can you list how many of each from that last photo?

one nose is hidden on the pic, and one "spotted"is facing the camera, so i can't see if there's any size difference in snouts.
I think the one with the hidden nose may be a shortnose as well.
so i'd say 4 shortnose, 2 spotted and a florida.

Where are your Shortnosed from again?

My shortnose gars I got from another member on here from Evansville, IN. He collected them himself from the wild. They were in a pond that had gotten sealed off from a river and was drying up. He rescued as many as he could so that they wouldn't just dry out and die. I originally got seven of them from him, but one of them died for unknown reasons after initially being healthy for about 3 months.
 
3 shortnose, 2 florida & a spotted:) come on we're gna need a tougher quiz:P
