Looks like it to me -- Xenentodon cancila, commonly sold as "needlenose gar" even though it's a member of the needlefish family, Belonidae.

 

[guppy]

Nope , this one is the same family, different genus, and a bit more than 8's longer. heheh, go fish.

 

[Fish Room Plus]

8' LONGER????

 

[guppy]

OOOps! typo, should say 8" longer.

Be careful with those units, guppy. You could end up with an 18-inch tall model of Stonehenge that is in danger of being trampled by dwarves.

 

[guppy]

Yep, or what was supposed to be a 55g tank that is 4 feet log, 1 foot wide, and 21 feet tall. It would be a bit hard to clean.
The fish though lives a little closer to most of us than the cancilas do.

You people who fish in southern Florida have seen this fish.
