Don't do that! Do not try to collect these rivulus or the DNR will give you a huge fine as they are protected by law. And they are very rare and very hard to find because of its enviroment where this fish lives.

Most of our rivulus are aquarium bred, not wild caught ones. My killifish are aquarium bred.

Sh*t, never mind, i figuerd they were plentiful.

Does that mean its illeagal to catch and take lizards home with you?
