The coloration Jordan will change markedly as the fish calms down and relaxes. These fish normally take about anything food wise so I would not worry much about feeding...

Good luck with him and I'm glad you got one!!!!
you can get a hold of me on CLO if needed....

he just took food for the first time! he seems to have relaxed alot and is doing great! ill be sure to get hold of if i need some insite. i haven stopped by CLO in a while, but i will be sure to. im really excited about this guy! thanks!

now that my trop is all settled in i have been noticing him being much more aggressive than my florida gar. he eats anything! he eats pellets, krill, crickets, and even steals live feeders out of the longnose's mouth that i am keaping him with. He actually attacked the longnose gar...i am not sure if he was mistaken for food or if it was aggression. other than being aggressive he seems to be very calm and not jumpy at all. now that he is calmed down and i got him all fattened up i will post some new pics tomorrow. the trop is becoming quite the monster fish.
