ABA ABA KNIFEFISH

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have already checked the list but dont see aba aba on it but I never see theses in lfs so just wondering if they are legal or illegal just looking for a yes or no answere.... those lists are from 2011 as well.
 
They're not on the list for Florida, so you can have them.

Florida has two types of restricted fish, those that are outlawed and those that can be had with a permit. I was unable to find them on either list.

Conditional species list (with permit)

Banned species list

A large part of the reason I'm not going back to Florida when I get out of the army is because of how restrictive they are. Hell, Florida outlaws species that haven't been considered valid in 25 years.

You must remember that aba aba are top predators and fetch a pretty decent price tag...most local fish stores don't have the clientele for fish like that... most aba aba are usually only found at vendors or private owners due to the lack of supply and demand for a fish like that but just cause you have never seen one at your local fish store means nothing you most likely will have to order one GL with your search for one :)
