Hi guys,

Today I bought 2 pieces of gar. I bought them with the name Lepisosteus ocellatus. Is it really "ocellatus"? I think it's Lepisosteus platyrhincus. You advise me?

First gar:

Second gar:

most likely to be Florida gar(Lepisosteus platyrhincus) since you are in slovakia!
 
I do not understand. Why due to Slovakia?
because the fish is most likely farm raised and Florida gar is being breed in farms a lot while I don't think there is any farm that breed spotted gar to sell!
