Miscellaneous Exotics North America Freshwater designation.

Just curious what the difference is between a Miscellaneous exotic and a global species when it comes to fishing the state of Florida for invasive species - specifically Clown Knifefish - Chitala chitala - which is currently classified as a Global freshwater species. If you look at the species profile for Clown Knifefish at https://www.roughfish.com/species/379 you can see that 5 of the 6 entries are from Florida, not Asia, which says to me the fish is catchable with some consistency. I volunteer that if an exotic fish is readily catchable in decent quantities in public freshwaters in Florida, then to me it should count as a Misc Exotic just like all the other Misc exotics listed. Clown Knifefish are common in Lake Ida and surrounding canals in the Fort Lauderdale area.
