Re: Now cold and killies was:Re: membership



Hi Mach,  Martin Tversted in Denmark overwinters several species of fish in cold temps and has told me they go into a sort of hibernation. These are cold tolerant fish.  He may be able to give you some info on this subject. He can be reached at martinrt at email_dk    

Thank you all for answering my green australe question.  I haven't seen the fish yet, but might see them this friday :)   Ron
