Yes they are, But only in certain states. Call your local aquatic store and ask them, but if buy from the pet store many of them mislabel their fish and you could be buying a red bellied pacu. They look alike but the piranha's bottom jaw sticks out. How to tell the difference..http://www.angelfire.com/biz/piranha038/idpira_and_pacu.html

The piranha is banned in more than 20 US states, due to concerns over the possibility that they will survive in the wild and threaten other living populations, including humans. For more information, visit The Law and Piranhas by Frank Magallanes:

one million out of each and every 4 Christians in the international are Catholic. however the Catholic Church has replaced over the years, purely like the numbers have. some Catholic churches are old-shaped, and a few are extra cutting-part and lenient. that's why maximum folk brake off into Protestant churches. As for the "no faith" human beings, some people who have faith in God elect to not call it a "faith". have you ever heard the asserting "Jesus is my savior. not my faith." It distinctly lots skill worship God the way the bible says to, not the way guy-made non secular communities assist you recognize to. As for the atheist, extra all and sundry is transforming into too clever, and thinking technology is the main to each thing.

It depends on the state. They are illegal throughout much of the south. Anywhere it's warm enough for one to live through the winter. Check with your local fish and wildlife service to be sure they are legal in your state.

They sell them at the pet stores in the town I live in so I guess they must be legal.

If you go to a store and find one in the store tanks, you have an answer to your own question. Just kidding but seriously, yeah they are legal to own in the US. Just be careful nopt to stick your hand in there or they'll eat it up :0P'''

They sure are! They're just a little difficult to raise because they tend to kill all the other fish in the tank whether or not they're ready to eat and they kill each other too. Good luck!

I've seen them in petstores and I think they are kind of pretty but I can't get one because it would eat all my other fish. But anyway i'm pretty sure they are legal.

They are illegal in many places. They're illegal in NY. Don't confuse them with Pacus,that look similar but are tame(r).
