You don't say i think i got screwed on this one because i cant house a gator. Shorty would have been fine.

Yeah Shortnose Gars are pretty thin for gars and though they have the potential to reach 3 feet but it's a lot more common for them to max out at 24 inches especially in captivity. Sorry that you might've got a raw deal. Here's a couple of pics of Shortys including mine around 12-14 inches.
He has goten a lot darker the past day while settling in the new tank but that doen not matter does it?

At 3ft in length now it may still be fine in your tank for awhile as your tank looks huge. What are the dimensions?
Its 8,2ftX6,6ftX5,9ft do i got some room to play with but it was never my intention to end up with a gator gar. It has always been on of the spices on my no never ever list.

I have a 28 inch gator gar and I am having problems with keeping it with tank Mates I have some of the same fish as you do,and he is pretty aggressive.I hope he does not start going after your fish.I had to change out a lot of them because they like to go on a shredding spree every time I add a new fish he shreds it or eats it.I hope you get lucky and Got a mellow one
