wow...some people really are just dumb...
why would he release a fish hes kept for TEN years?
how would it harm the environment anymore than those dogs,cats etc.
im pretty giant snakeheads werent the ones that caused all the trouble in maryland right?
it was the NORTHERN snakeheads right?
i cant believe some of the comments up there....
why cant a fish be cared for as a pet?
theyre not fluffy?they dont lick you in the morning to wake you up?:screwy::screwy::screwy:
 
i just heard on radio this morning now theres a petition to kill the snakehead...

Thanks.. i cannot amagine what your going through... but Rocky certainly has captured all our hearts here at MFK... we all will continue to see you through with as much support as you need until hopefully a victory... it has to be a victory...please just keep us informed... i have googled the story many times.. but hearing from you yourself... that is news... thanks Chris..
 
If you were looking for people that can understand how you must feel you came to the right place!We're with you man and hope this turns out well.
He is a great looking fish!!!
 
this is completly insane..... he has had rocky for 10 years and before it was illegal they need to make him sign a paper saying he wont put it in the local water... and maybe check in and make sure he still has it.... or someone in MD needs to take it.... pfft i have a 120G empty......

i feel your pain chris this whole situation is crazy to me...especailly that a zoo wouldnt take him @ this point? did you try baltimore aquarium ..since there legal in maryland.....ha ha i live in MD he can come live @ my house anyday man.but there is no reason that you cant keep them and they cant just check in on him and make sure you havent released him.
