hey demjor where are the pics

There is nothing really to see yet. Just picture a 16-17 inch Shortnose gar that hasnt eaten in several months. After i get him fattened up, i'll post some before and after pics, but i have a feeling this will take some time.
 
OK. Since so many asked for pics...here are a few old ones (these are over a month old). The fish has lost even more body mass since then, but is looking much better since he's started feeding. Things are definitely on the up swing.

P.S. sorry for the poor quality. These pictures were just quick snapshots i took a while back.

looks good.
love shortys.
never find them here. :(
cant wait to see some pics with him fattened up.

thanks,

give me another month or two with him...then i'll show you a shortnose gar! :)

BTW...this was the first Shortnose i have seen in the hobby. So they arent all that common here either (unless you want to collect them from the wild), but even that's a pretty long drive away from me.
