Prohibited Texas Fish... to import, possess, sell, or place in water in this state

[mredman]

Prior to 1980, there were many fish available that are banned today. One could buy the deadly blue-ringed octopus or you could take a short trip to the Bahamas and bring back any kind of coral or fish.

I have also seen banned fish at pet shops, including both freshwater and saltwater game fish.
