You will see tons of those things in big piles by the fish camps on the mexican side. The netters don't keep them, just pile them up and then the gulls have a field day on them.

They are aquarium fish. There's fish camps on the Mexican side littered with hundreds of them. The net fisherman chunk em up on the bank. The smell is horrible.

These also are found in many Florida waters, due to the irresponsible and illegal release of them by people.
Kill 'em all.

Please kill every one you come across. As said, we have irresponsible aquarium owners to thank for this plague. I understand they kill a lot of BIG catfish on Falcon. They stick those barbed fins out and nothing can swallow them. Get lodged in the catfishes throat and it kills the cat. They have no other natural predators! Kill em' all!

I find it very funny how some of you are scared to handle a Pleco.
