TALAPIA

It is legal (only with a permit) to have Tilapia in only
6 counties of California (San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, Los Angeles, Imperial & Orange)... In any other county in California it's illegal for any type of Tilapia.

To legally have Tilapia in California one must register as a State
Permitted Aquaculture Facility.


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Currently, Oreochromis hornorum, Oreochromis mossambica and Tilapia zilli are the
only three tilapia species that are allowed by California Department of Fish and Game (DFGLead
Agency) to be raised in specific counties of southern California. The specific counties are
Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, and Imperial counties. Tilapia zilli
is allowed only with a Restricted Species Permit obtained from the CDFG. If you live in one of
these six counties and plan to raise tilapia in an aquaculture or aquaponics system, you must
register as an aquaculturist with the CDFG. If you plan to import tilapia into California, you will
need an importation permit from CDFG. You can obtain more information on aquaculture in
California on the CDFG Aquaculture webpage at: http://www.dfg.ca.gov/Aquaculture/, or call
CDFG at [phone].
