Tons of great stuff Ken. Thanks for sharing.
I just noticed you are holding a huge rainbowfish replica in your avatar picture! That is awesome!

I lived in Gympie, Queensland for about 15 years before coming over to Canada. That is a replica a customer of the pub I was working at made for me. I wish I had him make more now. I gave him a photo of a Goyder River and a Coen River trifasciata. |I meant him to make the Goyder using those colours and just had the Coen there as a body shape reference. He misunderstood me and blended the colours into one fish. It did look good though. That photo was taken the day I got it.  Ken |

Would you happen to have any of the old ANGFA newsletters/publications? I lost mine in a house fire about 5-6 years ago. All my Killie Notes too. So sad.

I am sorry, I have been really busy and didn't see your enquiry. Yes, I do have various old backissues of Fishes of Sahul and Angfa News. I also have a CD with the following on it: The Newsletter - Issues 1-16 (1983-1989), ANGFA Bulletin - Issues 1-21 (1989-1995), ANGFA News - Special Anniversary Edition (revised), Fishes of Sahul - Volume 15 #4 (low resolution sample issue). All these in .pdf format.

I have talked to Gunther about this and all I can say is probably, eventually. The company printing the book does not give discounts to booksellers or even the author. Occasionally they allow the author to buy with discount. When that happens, Gunther said he would let me know and would buy some stock for me. In the meantime, buy it direct yourself. Sorry I can't be more helpful with this.

I will buy it direct. I've heard really good things though so I hope it works out for you to be able to stock it at some point.

It is a great book mate! I have seen bits of it. If you ever see one of my talks, you will probably recognise some of the pics - most that I use were taken by Gunther. He graciously allowed me to use them Ken |

Update on available rainbowfish publications available... Aqua Geographica Volume 16 sold out at the recent N.E.C. Convention. If anyone wants one of these, check out Heiko's page - he still has stocks of some editions of this great magazine.
