NEVER release an aquarium fish into the wild.

I just hope enough people on here have the common sense to know this is wrong. Good sticky!

I live in FL, took a roadtrip last summer out to the North West. While spending time in WY near Jackson Hole/The Grand Tetons we took a swim in a warm spring pond there. The temp stays in the upper 70's all year. I was amazed at the fish in this pond, it was like taking a walk through my LFS. African cichlids galore!

I sure wish our Gov did not cross stripe bass with white bass and stock in our lakes in KY. THERE nasty

i am very mad.. here in australia koi carp are banned because some @#!@$!@!@%$@%^!@$#$#@#@W#^ were not responsible pet owners and released their koi into the wild!
now no one can keep koi (which are one of my favourite fishes) in australia!

I agree. Look at the problems invasive carp created.

Local lake near me has
-Several types of snakes(of which non-native ones are out-competing our native grass snake)
- Turtles ( Red eared sliders..out-competed our native turtles decades ago)
-Silver sharks
and many more. Just so stupid to release fish into the wild!
