Completely off topic, but you remember those piebald/snow tropical gars ( I think they were tropical gars...hrmmm) that were being sold about a year to a year and a half ago? Did any one get any? I would LOVE to see some updated pictures of them! They looked crazy! Way too pricey though! OY!

I always wondered who landed those suckers! That vendor was also selling golden gars too...

Somebody needs to post some pictures!!!

SHAWWEEEEETTT!!!!! Lemme know when they post the pictures and what not!! It wasn't Chad was it? I know he has the golden gar, but did he get the pie balds too? I'm seriously surprised that Phil doesn't have one or two of them...lol

reGARding the fish in the images, it clearly has a broken back, and judging from the fin placement, lacks motor control of the unpaired fins posterior of the break.

it sucks that this happens to gars (and quite frequently...again, unfortunate), but fish like this need to be euthanized. they will only further propagate the injury as they try to swim, feed, and breach.

i'm all for taking on gars that can be saved, but in this case, the humane thing to do would be to put down the fish --
