iv been convinced, i MUST have a gar now, but what species is the best, i dont want something that gets too big, and whats the different between a short nose and a florida?
 
What the size of your tank is is a big point of attention when choising a gar, so please mention your tank size and your fish.
 
pic botom, ali gar.... too big when it grown, reaching 3 to 4 ft (or more) in aquarium.

pic above, spoted & florida gar, 1.5 or 2 ft, in adult size (normaly).
