I'm very sorry... Unfortunately this is keeping gar... you get pretty numb to it after awhile. It is a part of the experience and you learn to deal with it.

Is this a very common occurence with gar? And if so what is the cause or are there any preventative measures in avoiding this?:(
 
jess, im so sorry about this.

im glad i got to see it before it went, it was a truly beautiful fish. after seeing the fish in person, i think you made the perfect decision.

go buy that irridescent shark to make yourself feel better :)
 
Sorry for your loss. :( Hope you feel better soon.
 
Wow, I'm so sorry for your loss... He was an impressive specimen... :( I'm getting apprehensive about going the gar route with my bichir tank...
