Request for Ads: NFC Fishkeeper's Exchange
As Robert Rice has announced, we are trying to put together a number of
NFC programs and activities, which will include the new NFC Fishkeeper's
Exchange. Simply put, this will be an online listing of "bulletin
board" ads, which can be buy/sell/trade ads, announcements or items of
interest. Buy, sell or trade anything fish related, such as fish,
equipment, supplies, books, etc. We want to make this a fun way of
interacting with other native fish enthusiasts. There is SOMEONE out
there that would just love to have those common-as-dirt shiners that you
throw back everytime you go collecting, so why not trade them with
someone that is overrun with a species you are just dying to get hold
of? Think of the possibilities! I have some example ads below:
Buy/sell/trade ad:
Dwight D. Moody, PO Box 214, East Montpelier VT 05651. Tel #
802-476-0685. Email: dwightmoody at hotmail_com. Has for sale: Heterandria
formosa, northern redbelly dace, blacknose dace, longnose dace. $3 a

contact for details.
Announcement:
The Tropical Fish Club of Burlington will have a meeting on June 11,
1998 that will feature a presentation on native fish by Dwight Moody,
Sec/Treas of the NFC. The meeting will be held at 7:00 p.m. at the Lake
Champlain Science Center at the base of College Street in Burlington,
VT. Free door prizes, auction of fish/plants/supplies. No charge to

Looking for non-endangered sand darters for breeding project seeking to
establish protocols for sand darter breeding. Successful methods will
be used in an attempt to breed Eastern Sand Darters, which are either
threatened or endangered over much of their range. If you have access
to one or more species of sand darters, please give me a call or send me
an email if you wish to help in this important project.

One of the earliest Christian symbols was the fish
(Greek: icthys, which was an abbreviation for the Greek
words in the phrase: Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior).
Thus, disciples could identify each other by their use
of the fish symbol, which continues to be used today.
************************************************
Jonah was swallowed by a huge fish and remained
within it for three days and three nights. Afterwards,
he was "vomited" (literal translation) onto the beach
to go and minister to the people of Ninevah (Jonah 2:1-11).
While we often find references in aquarium books
concerning the first instances of fishkeeping
by humans, this appears to be the first instance
of humankeeping by a fish!
