From what I understand they are illegal to import and transport accross state lines, but only illegal to keep in certain states. Maybe the laws have changed since the last time I checked...

I think they are banned pretty much everywhere in north america now.
most (all?) US states they are banned.
here in Canada - they are banned too..
you can OWN them, but you cannot sell them, buy them, breed them etc.
if you had a snakehead prior to the passing of the law, you are allowed to keep it.
but thats it.

I don't know if y'all saw this, but Channa argus are established now in the Mississippi drainage in Arkansas and potentially have access to the entire continental interior, including (via canal) the Great Lakes and Mobile systems. This is bad news...

i totally agree it pnly takes a few iresponsible fishkeeps to ruin it for everone that is why us on AC need to show new fishkeepers the right way to go about the hobby
i really hope that the us can some how manage there situation and get it under control so future generations of fish keepers can enjoy this incredible fish
