Pfft, I see plenty of people sharing and not getting in trouble. I, for now, think it's safe to share photos. Problem is, I haven't taken any since he was like 4 inches long, ha ha ha. He's almost or is 3 feet now, I should get him out to measure him and take some photos soon.
The federal ban on wels importation allow for cats already in the US to be retained. However, a condition of the ban makes transport across state lines illegal. That means you may purchase a wels already in the country but, it must also be within the state in which you reside.
Unlikely they'll raid your property, plus I believe you have photographic proof of owning the fish pre-ban
