I was wondering if dwarf rainbow snakeheads were legal in the US. Also is there any other smaller snakeheads like this that are legal.

Thanks

Pretty sure all are banned. Get a Wolf Fish
 
I kick myself in the butt all the time for not picking up a snakehead when they were legal. I remember seeing them everywhere, even petsmart and walmart!
 
yeah, so so sad, I WANT A SNAKEHEAD
 
There's a federal ban on ALL SH species. However, Maryland has made small tropical species legal within the state. And, since it's a felony to transport any SN across state lines, only the small species that were owned within the state before the ban can be possessed. All imports are illegal as are sales outside the state.

Thanks everyone and thanks for the detailed response Oddball. I live in Ohio so it doesn't look like I'll be getting one of those then.
