It is still quite young so will not show dorsal or lateral spotting. As the fish grows the spots will begin to break from the Dorsal and lateral stripe. They all are pretty much patternless at this size.

The difference between this one and the other is that the other was much larger. It is not terribly uncommon for gars to show this red brown coloration. It will be very interesting to see how the coloration of this fish will turn out as it grows.
