can someone explain to me the snakehead ban

[JD7.62]

Check Texas for C. micropeltes. It's been caught there this year.

Reproducing or just an isolated catch?

ooh thats a bit harsh for you guys , no exotics at all , i suppose we have it fairly good at the moment in uk , there is only really channa argus , bowfin , paddlefish , that you need a permit for really.

oh we do need permits for things like lions and tigers ect ,and all posionus snakes. but as long as your enclosure is inspected and ok you are pretty good to go , a few of the big animals like crocs you also must have public liability insurance as well as the dwa permit. but on the plus side i seen a male lion advertised yesterday for £500 , thats cheeper than most pedagree dogs even cheeper than some snakeheads

cheers col

WAU lion at 500 pound how i wish i m in uk.For singapore all channa sp is ok giant micro sold in wet market for food. No exotic like sturgeon ,paddle fish ,piranha ,electric eel,arapaima , untag asian aros no perrmit allow to all these fishes .We can fish big channa at most pond , reservoir ,rivers & canals.Only zoos & public aquarium are given permit to keep any exotics fishes ,mammals & reptiles.! TKS bro Tropheus for ur reply & information abt uk pets ownership .hv a nice day !
