I'm not even a fisherman but I thought this was interesting.
I don't think I'd buy the theory that it came out of someone's fish tank tho.
Where there's one there's probably more. 
Will those things eat people? I see another bad fish movie on the horizon.

I haven't clicked on your link yet but I just wanted to say that I am terribly afraid of our water population. There are several things going on in the DC area - including the frankenfish. They have even found babies...which means they are REPRODUCING!!! 
It's going to be a tough call as to what to do.

They are a HUGE problem. You may have heard them called "snakehead fish." If given the chance, they will destroy the entire fish population in the river/stream/lake/etc. in which they are found!
