Hey Guys!

New to Monster Fish Keepers and so far love it!

I made a mistake and I deeply regret it, as I do love fish and would never want to make them miserable; but I ended up impulse buying a spotted gar without doing my research as I usually do.?

If anyone or if you know someone that has a BIG tank or pond that can give this guy a much better home than my 55 gallon I would appreciate it. He's very healthy, great coloring, eating very well- diet consists of: shrimp, gold fish mostly, and some red rosies, typically eats 3-5 fish a day. I think he's content, but he will be better off in a larger area to move around. He's about 12"

Also does anyone know if this is a Spotted gar or FL Gar? Based off what I've found on the forums and google search I think its spotted. I noticed that he changes colors/camouflages its pretty cool.?

PLEASE NO HATE, I understand not doing my research was wrong & I won't do it again, I beat myself up daily for it don't need others too as well

You could drop it off at our rescue in Naples, FL but 5.5 hours away pretty much prohibits drop off or pick up.

I don't understand alligator in the title.

FL and spotted are impossible to tell except by location - FL comes from Florida and the south while spotted comes from up north, Great Lakes area and around.
