Hey David! I was hosting a Cichlid booth out in FL for Gold Coast. There was a killifish competition going on and I was captivated! 🤩 after learning the breeding process and how the eggs can be kept dry in peat I started gathering species. I’m now all in! I’m in search of other hobbyists and groups to work with. So far I’ve been in contact with the SoCal group and a couple local groups. Killifish seem to be a hidden gem even though keeper have been around for a long time. I’m wondering how to expand the hobby and get others as captivated. I’d love to link up with your group!
