Picked these two guys up from LFS.. They were labelled as gars, but they have v-shape tail... Pardon the poor pics

They're definitely gars but not sure what type. I'm not a gar expert myself. Damn....armatus, arrow, and gar in the same tank. Yikes!!! You gar could be vicious like piranha right?

Trust me! If they're gars, I "gar"antee you that I'll steam one and deep fry the other on this coming Chinese New Year

Ctenolucius hujeta. Great pickup! 100% mellow and 100% predatory.
