In the last couple of days I received the latest issue of Killinews, which is produced by the British Killifish Association 6 times per year. I have been a member of the BKA for a very long time, and too long to think about, but I started my membership in 1980 (if anyone is interested in counting). If anyone is interested, you can currently join the BKA with a digital subscription for £10 per annum, but printed copy is more expensive. If you are interested in joining, then either use the BKA website (www.killis.org.uk/wp), or contact Andrew Frew ([email protected]).
Anway, this issue had some nice articles, like part 5 of a discussion on Rivulus, Aphanius in France, and breeding Nothobranchius on sand. Though the article that took my interest was one by William King where he was incubating non-annual eggs on kitchen towel to stop the spread of mould. Now this is very similar to my previous discussions of using cotton pads, but must admit that the kitchen towel would be a lot cheaper, but maybe not as robust for sending the eggs in the post. Anyway it is something else to try, and I will give some feedback at a later date.
