My foot long Cuban Gar

[rumblesushi]

These are the best pics I could get this morning, he was stuck against the front, being partially masked by the top of the tank, with the light not really hitting him. He has a real metallic sheen in reality.

Slanted - do you still think it's a tropical gar?

Very nice Cuban gar!

Sweet looking gar! Unique pattern on his tail!

Yeah his tail is awesome, it really does look illuminous in reality, you can see it glowing from the other side of the room.

I don't think that's a cuban gar dude.

Nice gar, nonetheless (I am not a gar expert, LOL)! I like!

MING, it's a cuban gar, ask E_americanus (solomon) - he ID'd it for me before I bought it.

If it's not a Cuban gar, I sure am interested to know what gar it is, as no other gar has that tail and that colouration.

Here's some more pics from my phone.
