Can you all please help me identify this guy? Purchased as "Imported Thailand" Gar. If it is an Alligator Gar I don't think I can accomodate something that will grow to be 8 feet long. :-(

It looks like it may be an alligator gar but I don’t know for certain you may need to wait for a more experienced member too answer.

I’d say about 6 feet long maybe leaning a bit more towards 5 feet.
