Red Florida Gar 9–10" — Oddballs Spotlight

Meet the Red Florida Gar (Lepisosteus platyrhincus — red morph). This isn't the typical olive-brown gar you'll find in most collections. The deep rust-red colouration is a genuine genetic variant, and at 9–10" these specimens are already well past the fragile juvenile stage — eating confidently and ready to become the centrepiece of a serious predator build.

What you need to know before buying: 🔸 Minimum tank: 6 × 2 ft (grow-out), 8 ft+ for adults 🔸 Temperature: 20–26 °C 🔸 Diet: Hikari Massivore, frozen lance fish, strip feeders 🔸 Difficulty: Intermediate 🔸 Secure lid is non-negotiable — these are powerful jumpers
