List of aquaristic talks

As a passionate ichthyologist I love to talk about fish and my research!  I regularly hold lectures on various topics at aquaristic conferences and for anyone interested in natural history.

Most of my “aquaristic” talks focus on the ichthyological diversity of particular traveled region etiher for research (mainly Africa) or holiday purposes (mainly Asia). Of course, with particular emphasize on cichlids, which are in the center of my research, but as well as on all other fish families and wild life in general.  

 

My talks last about 1 hour (time adjustable) and are available in English, German and French. If you are interested in in talk for your aquarisitc club or association please feel free to contact me. The list below gives an overview of my “aquaristic talks” (abstracts available on demand).
