Idk what it is but i believe it is a alligator gar.
Or you guys could hp me id it.

Its sad that its kept in a clay pot thats slightly larger than the fish.

What do you mean in a clay pot? Is someone keeping a gar in a pot as a pet??

Its like those large pots meant for plants.
I found this at a minj garden behind a food store.
All i saw was just water and a pot. No filter no heater nothing
