Here is a picture of my four alligator gar. I am building a temporary 1200 gallon pond it is 8x9 3 foot deep. While my large 11,000 gallon pond is being built. I hope to have pictures of the temporary pond tomorrow.
Temporary Gar pond build

These fish are monsters the big one was only 10 inches 5 weeks ago! He is now pushing 13.
They grow FAST when they're young, probably rivaling any other fish. RTC is the only fish that comes to mind that grows anywhere near as fast as gator gars. Most seem to slow way down once they hit around 4 feet, no matter the tank size.
Great to see someone building an appropriate sized pond for these guys! What are the dimensions on the 11,000?
Underlayment and insulation. Liner tomorrow 8 x 9 36 inches deep. Till I get the big pond done.
Liner and water in. Next side trim and top cap. Then filter building.
