I have been keeping tropical fish for the past 42 years.( I joined the club in 1971) and have been in the committee for the past 15 years. Besides keeping fish, I have bred several species in the past years. I keep a variety of fish such as tetras, gouramis, discus, barbs, oscars, rainbows. My tropical fish syndrome began a long time ago, 1968 the year of the beginning of such hobby. It all began when my father who used to work in Malta Dry Dock got me a pair of Guppies given to him by Joe Caruana (one of the presidents of the club) I prepared a Sweet jar with clean well water and kept it in the kitchen. The following morning I woke up earlier than normal to check my fish as she was pregnant and to my amassment I found some fry, and you can imagine the shout I expressed and all the family was down stairs watching such fish, my father said that those are mosquitoes and he was going to throw them away. I told him, no asks Joe to come and see them after work (and that was my first protection) From that day onwards I never looked back and my hobby came part of me. My role in the committee was from a normal member to cashier, pro, vice president and now as president. My mottos are Ahjar Delizzju milli vizju and it is Nice to be Important but More important to Be Nice. If you want to know more about me see the following link. http://www.freewebs.com/frontoza/
