Permits are generally only issued for educational purposes. I don't think the NYA even has any live specimens.

Illegal activity can be conducted on other forums. We don't need newbies messing up MFK.

Permits required, and it has already been established that OP lacks said permits. Thus, his continued solicitation for sale of said species would fall outside the realm of legality.

Good catch though wurm.

Here's the pertinent section of the statute:

No person shall import, export, own, possess, acquire or dispose of live piranha fish (Serrasalmus, Rooseveltiella or Pyrocentrus), grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) or hybrid grass carp within the state without a license or permit issued at the discretion of the department for scientific, biological or exhibition purposes.
