Good questions....But I don't know...?
Every state is different...and the states change their minds...

FL is odd, we can have blue tilapia in re-circ systems in most of FL. But in the NW Panhandel, they need a permit.
The nw panhandel is probably the coldest part of the state and least likey to survive there.....

Ca...Ok in S ca, not so in N Ca....again, tilapia most likely can't survive in N Ca because of the cold....

Best to check with your state.
