We would like to advise that the individuals who post advertisements to sell fish on your forum page may be committing an offence under Section 48 of the Animals and Birds Act 2002 which states that no person shall keep in captivity for sale, export or exhibition any animal or bird in any place that has not been licensed.

“The Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority (AVA) would like to inform the

public that the commercial breeding of animals can only be carried

out on farms licensed by AVA. Pet owners who regularly breed and

advertise to sell pets can be considered as commercial breeders. An

individual convicted of breeding and selling animals from his

premises without a licence from AVA can be fined up to $5,000 upon

conviction.”

We seek your assistance to stop the illegal sale of animals over the

Internet. You can assist us by deleting postings by net users who

regularly advertise ornamental fishes for sale in your forum and providing

us with their details.

"Pet owners who regularly breed and

advertise to sell pets can be considered as commercial breeders."

will have to define that word. So you can argue you are not the breeder until that's been defined....kekekekeke
