LIVE CRAYFISH BANNED IN AQUARIUMS IN PA

It's a sign...soon USA will ban everything and you guys can only own gold fish....

As much as I'd love to keep a little wet pet native cray, I see the reason for the ban. Rusty crayfish have destroyed native populations, though I see no reason to ban tropical ones that would die at the average temp of a PA stream.

LOL,what do you mean by that?

I just don't see any kind of beneficial change coming from this.

Here in NY, I swung by to order a 180 from the fish store I used to work for and my old boss was telling me they they have to label all goldfish, African frogs and a bunch of other stuff as invasive species and put stickers on the fish bags to comply with new DEC laws.
