    Anything that will not cause an ecological problem if it finds its way into the waters of our coasts. Example Lion fish. These should not be sold at all. They are very damaging to our local reef systems and should be seriously regulated. We can not own or buy piranha in the state of FL. I feel the same way about Lion fish.

    Not that you arent responsible I just feel they are bad fish all around

    i dont live anywhere near florida. i will have all of the tanks eventually. so i just need to pick which is going to be next. the trigger will be an awsome tank but i love the look of scorps and lions.
