New 10" FL Gar.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
skinny like you
also has a big head like you

needs some food
 
Yeah, the thing was like at death's door when I rescued it. It's fat now, compared to the way it was. Looks like its doing well Pat, keep us updated.
 
good that you guys were able to save the fish! looks like it's on its way to becoming a very healthy and well-patterned individual...get it on prepared foods (if it isn't already) and it should fatten up quite nicely (shrimp is a good staple). looking forward to updated pics in the future!--

It is stuborn doesn't want to even touch prepared. It will only take live. Maybe I should try night crawlers.

try raw shrimp or smelt on a feeding stick, this will usually work best after a day or two of fasting the fish as well. any gar will eventually come around, keep us posted and good luck!--
