Icic..so those labelled as spotted gars in lfs are actually floridas? Do their spots get big and round like the above showcased as they grow or depends on luck?

Yup usually they r call spotted gar, different gar will have different spot some big n small .Best u get 3-4 piece , after they grow u choose which nicer the rest can sell off .This is wat I did , to get my expectation of the gar.
