There used to be Koi sellers,but I dont see it anymore,may be not allowed,as I was trying to find turtles,no turtle either.

Believe it or not, a fair number of people who are purchasing those live critters are using them for "revenge" purposes. A disturbing fact.

I knew of a guy out in CA who bought a package of 5,000+ German Cockroaches and set them loose inside a fast food place he hated. The end result was the location had to be shut down for several days for "rehabilitation". This happened back in the 1980's, and probably wouldn't be a good idea today with all the security cameras around.

Funny you mention this, I researched aquatics and fish because of this clue for a market on ebay back in the summer. Tough market, but it exist.

They still sell Koi. Maybe its getting to cold. I have seen listings for crickets too. I discussed it with my husband and he said no way was I going to start breeding crickets, lol.
