Speaker: Rick Borstein
Topic : Livebearer Reproduction

Livebearers are an interesting and diverse group of fish that go far beyond guppies, swordtails and platies. In this talk, Rick Borstein, the President of the Chicago Livebearer Society, will review livebearer anatomy, incubation, nourishment of the fry, and techniques for saving the most fry from your spawns. The talk will also cover tank set-ups and breeding techniques. This talk is suitable for both beginner and experienced hobbyists so please make plans to enjoy a wonderful animated discussion with Rick Borstein.

Our clubs collective experience is our main asset.

A Little Club History

A Fish Club was born in 1971 as The Brampton Aquarium Club. Over the years we've attracted many Aquarium enthusiasts from other municipalities such as Caledon & Mississauga and elsewhere. In early 2008, we changed our name to Peel Regional Aquarium Club to better reflect the community around us.
