It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of aquariums and ponds, but there is a darker side of the hobby that bears discussion. That "dark side" is dumping unwanted fish or plants into your local lake or river. Sure, it's tempting to give a fish that has outgrown your tank a new home at the local river. But that doesn't mean it's the best option for solving the problem. Before you choose to toss an unwanted aquarium fish or plant, consider the damage that it could do to the local habitat.More About Invasive Fish
