Mods and MFKr's Help!

Just read the thread were the guy got busted for the illegal arow. So like the mod said I decieded to check what is legal for my state. As I am looking down the list I see that talapia are illegal. I bought this fish from an lfs a couple months ago. I picked the fish up not knowing what it was but it looked cool. I posted the pic on MFK for an I.D. when I got it. Since I apparently have an illegal fish I need to know if the laws have changed or if I need to get rid of the fish. The fish was only $10 so ill get rid of him to avoid any fine. I am asking you guys not to snitch on me or have wildlife and fish people banging at my door...... Heres a pic tell me if Its legal or not if so the bye bye Talapia....

no idea, but if they are, FW would be at your door regardless of you getting rid of them or not. i would call them up and ask them, and if they are, tell them you didnt know better, and posting on here ( not doing research ) is really asking for trouble....

The OP has raised a legitimate question.

Either someone with knowledge of the applicable laws ( by the way there is a sticky State by State in the BS Section) gives him a help, or a mod will.

There is no place for smart aleck comments, please.
