Hello,

I just recieved a Gar fish from a friend that had him in a 25 Gal wich was not a good home.
I have him in a 75 Gal until I can donate him to a place that will be a well suited home for him.
I am well aware that a 75 Gal is no were near big enough for this guy.
He is currently 15 inches in length.

My question is...

Is it a True Alligator Gar as I was told or another in the Gar family?
And also how much time do I have to get him to a proper home?

As I said I am well aware i can not properly care for him but a Temporary home in a 75 Gal
is better than the 25 He was in.

it is most likely to be a Florida gar and definitely not a gator gar!
 
Florida or Spotted?
