November's Speaker: Viktor Gyorffy

Viktor got his first aquarium when he was five years old. His first fish were guppies, then he moved on to other livebearers and easy fish like danios and gouramis. All his tanks were planted with the 5-6 plant species that were available in his area at the time. When he discovered the local plant club, GWAPA, it widened his horizons, and he started keeping a large number of plant species. Eventually, he started using pressurized CO2 in his tanks. He served as GWAPA president for a number of years and is still an active member. Currently, he maintains close to 20 tanks, most of which are planted. He does tubbing in the summer, and he breeds livebearers, killifish, and tetras. He also has an emersed 75 gallon setup.
