This was taken several years ago. It's a species of Gar, commonly referred to as, "Florida Gar." They're common to the aquarium trade. I've had these 2 for almost 5 years. This was taken with my old D7000.

Here is a picture I took yesterday of my Brown Cichlid. He/she is supposed to get a pretty orange/red belly eventually, hasn't happened yet.

Cool Fish. Planning a trip to my local aquarium in a few weeks.
Yup, just graduated in 2010!
I'm guessing you have your own aquarium? Oops, I just realized the picture I posted was a Chocolate Cichlid, not a Brown. I have a 75gal freshwater tank with mostly SA Cichlids. I just bought some new decor for it. I had a really cool piece of driftwood but it took up too much space now that the Severums are getting big.
I may get a chance to go down to the Shedd Aquarium again in a couple months. Maybe I'll be able to snap some cool shots of what they have.
This isn't a very good picture as she is in an awkward position in the tank, this is also the second time she has laid eggs in like 2-3 weeks.
