Are these Snakeheads?

[predatorkeeper87]

what shop or person told you those were snakeheads?

No idea where you live but as EVERYONE above me said, they are 100% illegal in the US.

No shop would have them, couldn't imagine one taking that stupid of a risk haha. It was a guy from Kijiji that I was getting a couple of filters from, and he was trying to sell me his "snakeheads" as well. Definitely figured they were catfish but never hurts to double check.
I'm in Ontario, Canada btw - still illegal here too. Beautiful fish they are though, albeit nasty.
