: the local store was selling a fish that looked like Sunnies. they said the fish came in with thier feeder fish because they raise them on a farm. I dont know what kind they are (Bluegill??) but if they are from the local farm wouldn't it be illegal to sell them? And if i bought one do i need to buy a permit like i do for my lizards
Laws restriction the keeping of native fish species will vary according to state. I would suggest contacting the local wildlife department (either via phone or on the internet) for more detailed info. Hope this helps - JPL
