Speaker Bio

Kevin Wilson began fishkeeping at the age of 13. After Graduating High School, he worked his first job at the Barrier Reef Aquarium in Rockville, where he was introduced to the saltwater side of the hobby. It was then after purchasing his first blenny that he fell in love with blennies, a family of coastal fishes with interesting behaviors. Kevin's fascination with blennies evolved from his first love in aquarium fish, the cichlids. He kept various species of cichlids during his High School years. Blenny behavior is very similar to cichlids, having very alert, active eyes and curious, almost intelligent behavior. They're almost a benthic saltwater version of a smart cichlid.

While in college, he caught his first local blenny and became fascinated with a grad student’s experiment on striped blennies. This fascination led to his dream, to keep local blennies in a setting close to their natural environment and resulted in his efforts to build a simulated oyster reef in a home aquarium. He entered this tank in the 2022 Biotope Aquarium Project's Biotope Aquarium Contest North America Category and wound up taking First Place! He's also kept local native freshwater fish species in home aquariums for 43 years and is a member of the North American Native Fishes Association (NANFA).

Baby mbuna

Anybody have baby Africans ?

Juvenile Bristlenose Catfish - $1

Juvenile Bristlenose Catfish (aka, Bristlenose Plecos or Bushynose catfish), currently around 1.5 to 2 inches in size but grow to just 3 to 5 inches when full grown.

These are docile, peaceful fish that do well with other fish. They are great at keeping things tidy in the aquarium, gobbling up algae, and, because of their small size, do not require huge tanks like other pleco types. They are active and healthy. Born and tank-raised locally in Virginia.

Do well in growup tanke. Super cute and fun to watch!

1$ each. You cant beat that.

Pick up Reston VA. Can also bring to PVAS meeting this Saturday.

PM me

WTB Ancistrus ranunculus (L034 Medusa pleco) female

Can pick up in DMV area if anyone has any available.

Breeding pair of Malawi Thick lips (Chilotilapia Euchilus)

Rare pair of Malawi Haps. Very gentle unique fish, beautiful breeding colors. $90.
