Aquarium Co-Op Podcast

I am joined by Greg Steeves to discuss his time in the hobby, a brief history behind the issues impacting Lake Victoria fish, the great work being done by the CARES organization, and how you too can get involved to help at-risk fish species. CARES website: https://caresforfish.org/ Greg's website: http://africancichlids.net/

I am joined by Joe Ferdenzi, life long aquarist, killifish fanatic, and Beginners' Committee Chairman for the American Killifish Association. American Killifish Association - http://aka.org/   Killifish referenced during the show - Saberfin Killifish (Terranatos dolichopterus)  

Join me for a great conversation with Sam Scālz on his beginnings in the hobby keeping fish and drawing them as an artist. Every fish room needs to have at least one of his pieces hanging on the wall. Check him out here: https://www.facebook.com/ScalzNatureArtist/ https://www.instagram.com/samscalz/ https://samscalz.threadless.com/   Facebook Biotope Aquaristics Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/biotope.aquarium/

I am joined by the show's first international guest, Brendan Flynn from British Columbia, Cananda. Brendan and I discuss his time in the hobby, which is relatively short compared to other guests given he is 14 years old, how we can get more youth involved, and his plans for growing his YouTube channel. Check him out.  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRmkB1CHVINkCEimmTGEfKQ/featured

I am joined by Lawrence Kent, a world traveler who helps fight povery across the globe and still manages to find time to "fish watch" everywhere he goes. Lawrence takes me through his early years living in Africa with the Peace Corps to one of his most recent trips.  Lawrence also shares some insight for any would-be travelers to Africa wanting to catch native tropical fish.

Therese Neal and I discuss her role with JBJ and Dennerle and a few of the products that Dennerle has brought to the US market. We also discuss her experience as the coordinator of the International Shrimp Competition USA.  This alone is worthy of an enitre episode so I will be inviting her back to the show as we get closer to Aquatic Experience 2018.
