UNSPSC 10101716 Live llambina fish is a Commodity code covering the supply of live fish species to state and local government agencies, though recent solicitations show material activity in live mosquitofish and trout fingerling procurement rather than llambina specifically. State and local governments buy live fish under this code primarily for two distinct purposes: mosquito control programs that distribute mosquitofish to residents, and fisheries management and public recreation programs that rear and stock fingerling trout for fishing access by disadvantaged and disabled populations. County governments and state natural resource departments are the primary issuing bodies, along with occasional special-purpose conservation districts. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners and Montgomery County, Pennsylvania represent the recent buyer base, with procurement structured as multi-year supply contracts and facility sub-lease arrangements tied to operational management.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Pennsylvania. Hillsborough County, Florida issued ITB 26-00227 in April 2026 (due May 7, 2026) for a three-year Gambusia holbrooki mosquitofish supply contract valued at $169,440 for live fish delivered in oxygenated bags to the Public Works Department's Mosquito Control Division. Montgomery County, Pennsylvania posted solicitation 2629 in May 2026 (due June 4, 2026) as a letter-of-interest RFP for a 10-year sub-lease to operate a trout fingerling nursery facility at Stony Creek in Norristown, with evaluation based on operator experience, past performance, and price, though no contract value was specified. The Hillsborough County bid required comprehensive insurance including general liability coverage from $500,000 to $2,000,000 and E-Verify compliance; the Montgomery County sub-lease welcomed for-profit, nonprofit, and public entities with no set-asides specified but with local and small-business self-identification options available.
