Practical Fishkeeping | Practical Fishkeeping Magazine July 2019
Well, the hobby just got a kick in the stomach, courtesy of Facebook deciding to enact its policy of restricting livestock sales on its platform. We discuss this in both the news (p.22) and Tailpiece (p.114). Bang goes my pension fund of breeding rare catfish and flogging them in fish groups.
But it isn’t all doom and gloom. This month I’ve been blown away by the sheer variety of fish on sale in stores, even in shops that would be considered ‘basic’ by today’s standards. It makes me smile knowing that newcomers won’t know the struggle of travelling half the country just to find a stockist with Malawi cichlids.
