Well, i didn't say that you would win anything... but I can give you this: Congrats!

nice gar man

Thanks mate!

Any tips on food.. was told from the previous owner that it eats shrimp. No success so far, but guess he will eat pretty soon.

Lepisosteus oculatus

more likely plathyrinchus

I really cant tell the difference... Florida (plathyrinchus) have smaller spots than spotted (oculatus) from what I've seen. And this piece has some large spots?..

Not too suprised its a florida though...

Nice gar! I have a Florida Gar that I've had for over 8 years and he's my most favorite fish.
