Gaen Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Didn't buy one. Currently own a 13" alligator gar. The ones at big al's look awesome wish I could get another one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pagani Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I don't think they should be legal to sell at a store like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistolPete Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 they have marble gars there as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelThunder Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I don't think they should be legal to sell at a store like that. From what I heard, Arapaimas and Alligator Gars(only) are illegal to own or sell. Myabe not anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishnerd Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Only illegal in the US, just like Arowanas b/c they can get loose in the southern temperate waters, here in the Great White North we can have at er' same with aquatic plants. they can't own many of the species we can for the same reasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quetzalcoatl Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) I don't think Gars are illegal in Canada. To own one you just need a massive fish tank or a tropical pond By the way, how much were they?

captain17 Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 i think the alligator gars were around 60 to 80$. nice looking but as quetzalcoatl said, you need alot of room. they grow to feet not inches lol. super cool fish though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladayen Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I dont think most people realize things can grow to the same size as a human. Specimens over 7' have been recorded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
