Talk about memory lane. I remember those old issues of TFH. They were bread 
and butter for a kid with a few metal framed tanks and visions of collecting 
in all those exotic locales.Since then I have visited and collected some of 
the fish and places HRA and gang went to, Africa, the Amazon and Central 
America is still on my list.
