No it is not legal to put it into your aquarium, besides our waters are so cold that it would be impossible to keep your aquarium that cold without some kind of cooler, that fish will not last very long in captivity.

FishBrain...I believe you are wrong.

Yes it is highly illegal to transport live fish in Alberta and you should not do it.

Many people unfortunately take fish from their aquariums and dump them somewheres rather than killing them. This transports species illegally as well as diseases.

Just go by a guppy or apply for a permit.

General Sportfishing Restrictions

It Is Unlawful To:

Possess live BAIT FISH.
*******************
Releasing Prohibited Fish

You must immediately release every fish that cannot be legally kept because of species, catch limit, size limit or other regulation, without exception, even if the fish is injured or dead. When the fish is alive, you must release it in a manner that causes the least harm to the fish.

Examples of prohibited fish are:

a species for which the limit is 0.
a fish smaller than the minimum-size limit.
a fish larger than the maximum-size limit.
a fish the size of which is protected by a slot-size limit.
a fish that has been snagged.
a fish caught after you have already kept your limit.

Collecting Bait Fish

Catching bait fish (such as suckers) by angling, bowfishing or spearfishing is allowed from all waters open to fishing with these methods, even at waters where the collection of bait fish by other means is prohibited. Anglers may collect their own bait fish by minnow trap, dip net and seine net, but these fish must not be sold. The commercial collection of bait fish requires a Commercial Bait Fishing Licence. The following regulations apply to the collection of bait fish for personal use as bait:

The collection of bait fish is not permitted in waters having a bait ban or restriction on the use of bait fish, and in some other specified waters (see each Fish Management Zone for regulations).
The possession of live bait fish is prohibited. All bait fish kept must be killed immediately. Please do not kill more than needed because bait fish are important food for many sport fish.
Fish other than bait fish must be immediately released unharmed. Game fish such as perch must not be kept.
Seine nets may not be larger than 3 m in length and 2 m in depth.
Minnow traps may not have dimensions greater than 60 cm in length by 30 cm in width, depth or diameter.
No more than 2 minnow traps may be used at one time.
Minnow traps must bear the operator’s name, address and Sportfishing Licence number.
Crayfish cannot be used as bait. It is unlawful to possess live crayfish.

and as a side note, you do not need a chiller for a lot of minnow species you can collect for them to survive well in an aquarium. Our most prevelent minnow species are fathead minnows followed by brook sticklebacks and you can keep these things alive in a bucket. When I worked for DFO we had a 125 with 2 brown, 3 rainbow trout, 3 bullhead, and a bunch of minnow species (until the bullhead ate them all). No chiller on the tank and everything was doing great.

I worked with many from fathead minnows, brook stickleback to fine scaled and redbellied dace. along with perch and pike.

Still...it is illegal and should not be encouraged.
