For online aquarium and pond suppliers
No federally injurious species, and your own state lists.
Finguard gives every fish, crustacean, snail and mussel its scientific name and checks it against the federal injurious wildlife list, which includes snakeheads, walking catfish, mitten crabs, zebra mussels and several carps. A listed species sold live, as eggs or as gametes is blocked at checkout to every state. A product with no scientific name is held until it has one. You can also keep your own list per state, and orders into that state are stopped. Not legal advice.
