Jeff Michels (Aquatic Clarity)
Jeff will be talking about Barombi Mbo, in West Africa. The lake, region and fish. In nature and in the aquarium. 11 endemic cichlids found no where else in nature.
Jeff Michels
Having grown up with an aquarist for a father, Jeff Michels started keeping fish at a young age, and now has decades of fishkeeping and breeding experience to his credit. A native of southeast Wisconsin in the Milwaukee region, he has worked in the aquarium industry his entire life. He is the president of the online retailer Aquatic Clarity, and which also provides aquarium and pond services for private and commercial accounts, as well as trade show support and product set-up for advertising for multiple aquarium manufacturers
Be sure to look over Jeff's website for rare and unusual cichlids that he can bring with him to our meeting on Friday. www.aquaticclarity.com. Lots of cool exotic fish from South America and West Africa.
October 26, 2018 Speaker:
Mike Lucas ""Butterflies in the Water" Discovering Hydrophlox Shiners"
Introduction to Greenhead, Redlip, Saffron, Yellowfin, Rainbow, Tennessee, Rough and Ozark shiners. How I got hooked on Hydrophlox shiners. Again lots of info and photos.
I'm the eastern NY rep for NANFA (North American Native Fishes Association) and have been collecting, keeping and appreciating native fishes since a child. I'm always amazed at what can be found in our local waters and how relatively obscure our native fishes are.
