someone putting perch in your local trout pond doesn't compare whatsoever to an invasive species taking over entire watersheds. Environmental effects include out competing native fish for habitat; loss of native fish species; changing the type of fishery via alteration of fish community structure, food chains, and habitat alteration/destruction. After a while they become the dominant fish species.
