Brightly colored koi seem to find their way into local ponds. So, a red tailed catfish is certainly not out of the question.

You don't have to go to Connecticut for wild parrots there are sizeable populations in the Carteret area.

Something i do wonder about however is selecting trout that survive in harsher waters. Warm and polluted.

I am almost convinced that the right trout can make it year round if it finds the perfect hole. Idk though could just be me. Be cool if they tagged a bunch of fall stockys to see if it happens and where.
