yeah thats true but these are tiny. they are probably about 3-4 inches long and are just little tubes. verry zippy and should grow relatively slow

I doubt it is a true alligator gar so it shouldn't be a problem. A true alligator gar grows extremely fast when they are young and should have have thousands of gallons.

I just don't want somebody to get stuck with a fish they can't house. It isn't good for the fish to be cramped like that or for the hobby in my opinion.

I was about to google it myself. Last I heard it is illegal to sell them in Virginia as well. It used to be illegal to sell any fish that are found in the state and I'm pretty sure it still is the same.
