If you thought you’d have to wait for the convention before hearing from international explorer Franz-Peter Mullenholz we’ve got a great surprise. He’ll be in Brisbane before he and Gunther head off on the next leg of his Australian trek and while he’s here he’s stopping in to give us a presentation including his latest exploits rainbowfishing in New Guinea.
Clown Anemonefish, Amphiprion ocellaris.
We’ll also have a visit from Port Macquarie clownfish breeders Jennifer and Jack, with Adrian Dawson presenting a video of their setup. It’s possibly the biggest in Australia and has an extraordinary array of domesticated clownfish breeds. And, perhaps most significantly of all, it’s part of a school programme – so kids are picking up aquarium and fish husbandry skills. I’m starting to wish I’d gone to school in Port Macquarie…
