i wouldnt be opposed to "accidentally" picking up a chili red arro...

 

[marscortes]

i bet you were talking about the walking catfish, am i right? I really have no idea that they are illegal in United States, I was just assumed that they are illegal in Florida and other neighbor states. And I can see one problem, the lfs do not labeled their products "IM ILLEGAL", its not their job to tell us that this fish is illegal, all they want is money.

yes! there allover the place.

so what do you think about asian aro's sold about everywhere but the U.S.?

Heh jonnie5, Asian Arrowanas ARE sold in the U.S. It is illegal, but they are still being traded. Isn't the illegal pet trade only dwarfed by the illegal drug trade, in terms of $$$?

 

[micstarz]

There aren't really illegal fish where I live...(Hong Kong) but there's a law that places Paramesotriton Hongkongensis under protection.
