Gar

This odd fish acts as a night-time counterpart to the giant snakehead. It sells for 6,000 Bells, the only fish which does, and is approximately 2 and one-quarter metres long. It appears in late summer from 4pm to 9am. It is also the most expensive river pool fish. The ACCF fish encyclopedia says: "These ancient, huge, alligator-like fish have been known to eat waterfowl." When placed in the museum, the gar shares a tank with the arapaima; meaning it, in ACWW, is in the middle tank, and in ACCF it is in the tank on the right.

This fish can be caught up to 12 feet in length (about 4 metres). Its scales are diamond-shaped and are sometimes used for jewellery. It is the largest type of gar and appears in North America, particularly the United States of America.
