Ok, back to Gar... Starting off smal...

Picked these guys up Friday. Grabbed 7 in total, Florida's ranging from 10-13". Have them in a section of my 360g.

One with a bent snout on purchase, but the color was nice so I grabbed him anyway.

will these fish stop growing if you do not move them into another bigger tank???

 

[BOTR]

No. And stunting a fish to make it fit in a smaller than sufficient tank is pretty irresponsible.

Awesome Florida gars! The one with the bent snout has a pretty cool orange hue to it.

Very cool man. Even though they are common, I love Floridas.

Thanks.

For size reference, that is a 2 inch drain he is sitting by. Cant wait to let them out into the entire tank.

Agree. Eventualy, I'll have a few of the more rare Gar in there. Just wanted to get back in slowly. Love Gar, always have.
