@TankMaster of course you are right, however this fact is having a massive negative effect on our ecology and well something has to give sometime!...
I agree, but if awareness of this problem is increased and in theory; by educating the general public to this sad situation at forums such as...
Personally I feel that any threatened species should not be wild caught, however in many cases this is happening. From my point of view in an...
Thank you @Hendre now we know more! It's not a fish for me, but facinating research! Thanks again for the info!
I'm sorry but I don't agree with keeping Aligator Gars, this is my opinion, yet you find this a reason to attack me?

We are getting wild caught tanganyikans
So where are you going to house this average sized Gar?
Controversial subject recently emerged from another thread; I felt it needed it's own dedicated thread. What are your views ?
@Pezulu exactly my point and therefore it should be banned! The average home aquarium is probably less than a four footer!
I have a long fin Oscar which is now close to 40cm, that's huge, even in the wild! Even baby Oscars are all over for sale, but most people who...
