These regulations are promulgated by the California Fish and Game Commission pursuant to statutory authority set forth in the California Fish and Game Code. (There's a statutory list too, but the one from the regulations is more complete. The statutes only contain the original list, whereas the regulations also include all species added by the Commission.)
lmfaoooo whatt.. that makes no sense. why would the common mal be banned and not the others? lol.. the others are more interesting anways! but i grew out of the wolf phase. As for shipping from pedro, did a shipping once from nj to nj before i knew they were located in NJ.... was about 50$
Well,I just recieved my order from Aquascape,a fine young fire eel and another black ear to add to my group.They both look great and shipping was around thirty bucks...I even got a follow up call from Nicole which was nice.My suggestion is if they happen to have what you want and it is legal in your area then you might as well go on and order it.
If it comes in dead you have sushi so kind of like fast food...lol
