Sri Lanka bans four invasive ornamental fish to protect ecosystems and fishermen’s livelihoods.
Sri Lanka has banned the import, sale, and transportation of four predatory ornamental fish species—Piranhas, Redline Snakehead, Knife Fish, and Alligator Gar—due to their harmful impact on native species and freshwater ecosystems.
The move, effective Saturday, aims to protect biodiversity and the livelihoods of local fishermen.
Pet owners are asked to surrender the fish to authorities, which will confine them to state-run aquariums.
A fishing competition has been launched to help control the spread of Snakeheads, which have rapidly multiplied in inland waters.
