They are all predators just like the Snakehead, and I dare say are probably not as good eating, yet they are welcome in NJ, and blessed by the state DEC For every game fish a Snakehead eats, it probably eats 20 small rough fish, minnow, or small sunny or perch, just like a Pickerel or LMB...... bob
These fish listed are INTRODUCED and not INVASIVE.
