Which States Ban Dojos?

Post by kayjay »

Does anybody know for sure if any particular US states have banned sales of dojos? Someone on another forum mentioned that Oregon has banned dojo sales since they've become a problem in the western (milder climate) part of the state. But they never posted again, so I don't know if that's true or not. I live in Oregon, but my nearest LFS is in Idaho, and nobody there has heard of anything like this. Just curious. . .

They're legal in Idaho. That's where I live, and I have no problem getting them, at all. Good thing, because they're such cute little fishies. Have you tried Washington? I think you can get them there, too.

They are illegal in MA & ME but I have seen them for sale a few times. Check with your state fish & wildlife site, there should be a list of either banned species or some have "allowed" lists, some need a permit. Here's an answer from another forum re Ore. http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/se ... hid=561426.
