Fall

Fall is a time for fish auctions and this year is no exception. So far this year we have attended the Pittsburgh, Columbus and Cincinnati auctions along with heading west for Cataclysm. For those that missed out on the first Midwest Catfish Convention, you missed something epic. The speakers were all top notch and the availability of catfish surpassed what I have seen even at CatCon. While in Wisconsin I was able to pick up some "Tatia" sp. "Marble" and another oddball woodcat, Tympanopleura piperatus. Both species may in fact be something new and undescribed. Hopefully in time we can get both species to reproduce. Be sure to mark 2017 for Cataclysm part II! I know I will be!

A few fishroom updates. Fish are all doing well. Our L-333s and Loricaria sp. "Rio Atabapo" just keep on producing! As a matter of fact, they are really the only fish that have produced on a regular basis since the move other than killifish. All of the fish are starting to settle back in and I expect a lot of fish reproduction in the coming weeks to months. Speaking of killifish, we just emptied a bunch of 2 gallon tanks in preparation for all of the eggs we wet below.

OCA is only a few weeks away! Be sure to get all of your preorders in asap. I will post an availability list sometime this weekend. See everyone soon for some fun in Cleveland! http://www.ohiocichlid.com/extravaganza
