Best Practices for Pet and Aquarium Stores Learn to identify invasive aquatic plants and animals. Do not use or sell invasive plants, fish or invertebrates such as crayfish in your aquariums. Check your plant/ animal orders for unwanted invasive
hitchhikers. Do not release any aquarium plants, fish or invertebrates into
natural waters. Help your customers learn about the importance of keeping
pets and plants contained.
![Page 25: Open for Business – Closed to Invasive Species · Invasive Species Rule (2009/ 2012) Rule Implementation • Overview of scope of industries • Case study of aquatic plants in](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050216/5f6227e82bc17869593ebdc1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Some retailers also received
additional contact from other sources Friends or family County staff Dept. of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) Nursery Inspectors
Informal Successes achieved Several retailers reported changing practices after
receiving outreach letter Several retailers reported changing practices after
plant identification assistance was provided and rules were clarified in person
Education & Outreach

Educational efforts are notoriously difficult to assess
Follow-up social surveys and stock surveys will enable better assessments of the educational efforts
Lessons learned will help us reach other business audiences more effectively
