We are a local group of aquatic enthusiasts. Formed in 1952, the Greater Akron Aquarium Society is a non- profit, non-commercial organization. Our membership ranges from the beginning hobbyist to the advanced aquarist with many years of experience. The goals of our club are to promote the care, study, breeding and exhibition of aquarium related aquatic life and to promote interest in the aquarium hobby. MEETINGS: Our meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month at 8:00 p.m. at the Mogadore Community/Senior Center, 3857 Mogadore Road, Mogadore, Ohio. It is located East of Route 532 across from McDonald’s in the former post office building. Visitors are always welcome, it costs absolutely nothing to attend a meeting and look us over. MEMBERSHIP: The cost is only $7.50 for adults, $10 for a couple or a family (includes children under 10 years of age) and $5.00 for a junior membership (10 to 17 years) Membership provides an opportunity to socialize with other that share your interests, a subscription to our bi-monthly magazine, library usage and more. AGENDA: Our meeting agenda is simple and informal. The meeting will begin at 8:00 p.m. with a short business meeting. Immediately following is the program for the evening which usually lasts about 45 minutes. Our programs consist of a speaker, slide program, movie or perhaps a panel discussion always on a particular subject related to the hobby or various species of fish. Following the program is a short refreshment break. After which the winners of the Bowl Show are an- nounced, the Breeder’s Award Program fish are auctioned and tickets are drawn for the equipment and book raffles. THE BOWL SHOW: Each month members can bring in fish for specific classes to compete for first, second and third place awards. The charge for each entry is only $.25. Members also compete for annual awards by accumulating wins throughout the year. BREEDER’S AWARD and HORTICULTURE AWARD PROGRAMS: members can receive recognition for spawning species of fish or propagating aquatic plants. All that is required is to turn in a minimum of six fry from the spawn that are between 30 and 90 days old. Members earn certificates for each species and can work towards plaques in different categories. LIBRARY: At the library table are a number of books and other publications covering all areas of the aquarium hobby. Mem- bers may borrow the books for a month at a time. Also each month several books are raffled off. EQUIPMENT RAFFLE: The raffle table has such items as tanks, fish food and aquarium accessories that are donated by national manufacturers, area dealers or purchased by the Society. Tickets may be purchased by anyone attending the meeting. Save your losing tickets for the Christmas Party raffle. ANNUAL SHOW: The Ultra-Aqua show is held during the summer at the Tallmadge community Center. This has become one of the largest all-species tropical fish shows in North America. It is an international gathering of hobbyists to display their fish in class competition, talk fish and to learn about the hobby from each other.

  • Depth Segregation and Diet Disparity Revealed by Stable Isotope Analyses
    Hata et al. Zoological Letters (2015) 1:15 DOI 10.1186/s40851-015-0016-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Depth segregation and diet disparity revealed by stable isotope analyses in sympatric herbivorous cichlids in Lake Tanganyika Hiroki Hata1*, Jyunya Shibata2,3, Koji Omori2, Masanori Kohda4 and Michio Hori5 Abstract Background: Lake Tanganyika in the African Great Rift Valley is known as a site of adaptive radiation in cichlid fishes. Diverse herbivorous fishes coexist on a rocky littoral of the lake. Herbivorous cichlids have acquired multiple feeding ecomorphs, including grazer, browser, scraper, and scooper, and are segregated by dietary niche. Within each ecomorph, however, multiple species apparently coexist sympatrically on a rocky slope. Previous observations of their behavior show that these cichlid species inhabit discrete depths separated by only a few meters. In this paper, using carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stable isotope ratios as markers, we followed the nutritional uptake of cichlid fishes from periphyton in their feeding territories at various depths. Results: δ15N of fish muscles varied among cichlid ecomorphs; this was significantly lower in grazers than in browsers and scoopers, although δ15N levels in periphyton within territories did not differ among territorial species. This suggests that grazers depend more directly on primary production of periphyton, while others ingest animal matter from higher trophic levels. With respect to δ13C, only plankton eaters exhibited lower values, suggesting that these fishes depend on production of phytoplankton, while the others depend on production of periphyton. Irrespective of cichlid ecomorph, δ13C of periphyton correlated significantly with habitat depth, and decreased as habitat depth became deeper.

  • Testing the Potential of Environmental DNA Methods for Surveying Lake Tanganyika's Highly Diverse Fish Communities Christopher J
    Testing the potential of environmental DNA methods for surveying Lake Tanganyika's highly diverse fish communities Christopher James Doble A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Genetics, Evolution and Environment University College London April 2020 1 Declaration I, Christopher James Doble, confirm the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm this has been indicated in the thesis. Christopher James Doble Date: 27/04/2020 2 Statement of authorship I planned and undertook fieldwork to the Kigoma region of Lake Tanganyika, Tanzania in 2016 and 2017. This included obtaining research permits, collecting environmental DNA samples and undertaking fish community visual survey data used in Chapters three and four. For Chapter two, cichlid reference database sequences were sequenced by Walter Salzburger’s research group at the University of Basel. I extracted required regions from mitochondrial genome alignments during a visit to Walter’s research group. Other reference sequences were obtained by Sanger sequencing. I undertook the DNA extractions and PCR amplifications for all samples, with the clean-up and sequencing undertaken by the UCL Sequencing facility. I undertook the method development, DNA extractions, PCR amplifications and library preparations for each of the next generation sequencing runs in Chapters three and four at the NERC Biomolecular Analysis Facility Sheffield. Following training by Helen Hipperson at the NERC Biomolecular Analysis Facility in Sheffield, I undertook the bioinformatic analysis of sequence data in Chapters three and four. I also carried out all the data analysis within each chapter. Chapters two, three and parts of four have formed a manuscript recently published in Environmental DNA (Doble et al.

O’Connor ∗ and Sigal Balshine b a Department of Biology, McMaster University, 1280 Main Street West, Hamilton, ON, Canada L8S 4K1 b Department of Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour, McMaster University, 1280 Main Street West, Hamilton, ON, Canada L8S 4K1 *Corresponding author’s e-mail address: [email protected] Accepted 9 August 2013; published online 2 October 2013 Abstract The costs and benefits of engaging in a contest will differ depending on the social situation of the individuals involved. Therefore, understanding contest behaviour can help to elucidate the trade- offs of living in differing social systems and shed light on the evolution of social behaviour. In the current study, we compared contest behaviour in two closely related species of Lamprologine cichlid fish. Neolamprologus pulcher and Telmatochromis temporalis are both pair-breeding cich- lids, but N. pulcher are highly social, group-living fish, while T. temporalis display no grouping behaviour. To examine how competition varies by species, sex and familiarity, we staged same-sex conspecific contests over a shelter, a resource that is highly valued by both species, where contes- tants were either familiar or unfamiliar to one another. When we examined tactical and strategic components of these contests, we found that the highly social species had shorter contests and engaged in fewer costly aggressive acts than did the non-social species. Individuals of the highly social species were also more likely to resolve conflicts through the use of submissive displays, while individuals of the non-social species were more likely to flee from conflict.

  • A Revised Synonymy of Telmatochromis Temporalis (Teleostei, Cichlidae) from Lake Tanganyika (East Africa)
    Journal of Fish Biology (2001) 58, 639–655 doi:10.1006/jfbi.2000.1475, available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on REGULAR PAPERS A revised synonymy of Telmatochromis temporalis (Teleostei, Cichlidae) from Lake Tanganyika (East Africa) M. H* J. S Africa Museum, Vertebrate Section, Ichthyology, Cichlid Research Unit, Leuvensesteenweg, 13, B-3080 Tervuren, Belgium (Received 4 July 2000, Accepted 13 October 2000) The taxonomic status of the nominal species Telmatochromis temporalis, T. lestradei, T. burgeoni and Julidochromis macrolepis has been reviewed. The synonymy of T. lestradei with T. temporalis is confirmed. A comparison of Telmatochromis burgeoni with Telmatochromis temporalis revealed no significant differences either. Hence T. burgeoni is considered synony- mous with T. temporalis. Examination of the type of Julidochromis macrolepis showed it to be conspecific with Telmatochromis dhonti and not with T. temporalis, as had been suggested. 2001 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles Key words: Telmatochromis; Lake Tanganyika; cichlids; synonymy; taxonomy. INTRODUCTION The systematics of the cichlids of the East African Lakes are very complicated and at present taxonomic knowledge is still poor (Fryer & Iles, 1972; Coulter et al., 1986; Greenwood, 1991; Rossiter, 1995; Snoeks, 2000). Even for the relatively well-known Lake Tanganyika, taxa with a supposedly stable taxonomy turn out to be problematic when a revision is made (Verheyen et al., 1996; Hanssens et al., 1999; Ru¨ber et al., 1999). As a result of an ongoing study on the taxonomy and distribution patterns of the lamprologine cichlids from Lake Tanganyika (Snoeks et al., 1994) several problems were encountered within the genus Telmatochromis Boulenger, 1898.
