Forgive me for stating the obvious:
If you are passionate about keeping any species of bird, fish, herp, mammal....consult:
1) Your state Fish and Wildlife Department
2) C.I.T.I.E.S (Internationally Protected PSecies)
3) YOUR CITY/TOWNSHIP ORDINANCES. These are just as important.
What may be legal in the state, is not legal in your county, township or city.

Please, what-ever we decide to keep as a Monster Pet, never, ever release it back into the "wild". Euthanize, sell or trade it.
Respectfully, FireMedic

well its not like getting caught with drugs or hurting someone.

There was that story about the guy who sold a bunch of Piranhas to people in Florida. He got fined a bunch of money, I think.

If I was the government, and I caught some guy with a bunch of illegal fish worth thousands each, I would take them and sell them to people in other countries. (kind of like how the police get tons of money from seizing cash that drug dealers get from dealing drugs)

Jail time, fine, AND they kill your aros

Isn't the reason Asian aros are banned that they're CITES fish and endangered? So if you catch somebody with one, kill it...that makes a lot of sense
