My argument against this is fairly simple:
The only way for a new species to survive in a foreign ecosystem is to
out-compete a species that is already present. I do not think degrading
the habitat of native fish that happen to be of plenty now is a wise way
of conserving alien fish which are threatened. Seems like you will just
be creating another potential threatened species.
