How & When did Hobbyists Start Keeping
Goodieds in the Midwest USA?
Goodeids Collected in Mexico and Studied by
Dr Robert Rush Miller
University of Michigan
Ann Arbor, MI
(about 100 miles from Pat’s House)

Goodeids into the Aquarium Hobby
Dr. Miller to Jim Langhammer
Langhammer to Hobbyists
Xenotoca eiseni - circa. 1966
Large deep bodied
Not Readily Established at that Time Due to
Rough Social Behavior

Learning How to Keep Goodieds
Not Fussy Eaters
Staple Flake / Frozen & FD / Baby Brine Shrimp
Frequent Water Changes
Characodon Extremely Intolerant of Nitrogenous Waste
One Species per Tank
Some Hybridization was Observed
No Corydoras

Ultimate Goal: Establish a “Stock Tank”
“Flock Breeding”
Ideal Setup for Species Maintenance
Mom, Pop, and the Kids all
Coexisting in Same Tank
when necessary:
Isolate Females
Raise Fry Separately

American Livebearer Association
Formed in 1971 by Dr Joanne Norton (Ames, IA)
Original Focus was Development of New Strains
Of Fancy & Domestic Livebearers
Interest in the Wild Poecilieds & Goodeids
Spread Like Wild Fire in the 1980’s
Breeding (BAP) was the Top Focus
Among most Hobbyists (Species Kept “61 Days”)

ALA Species Maintenance Program
Created by Vern Parish
• Published in LIVEBEARERS #54 (1980)
• Propagation of Wild Species (No Hybrids)
• Register Species that You are Keeping
• Paper Files for Hobbyist & Fish Species
• Inquiries will go to the SMP Chairman
who in turn will contact the Breeder

Pat’s Observations & Discussions with Vern
Hobbyists were Slow to Register
Some Devoted Hobbyists did Register
Fear of Being Pestered for Fish (Clearing House)
Fish Shows & BAP were still Main Focus
Status in the Wild was not Well Known
(Skiffia francesae & Xiphophorus couchianus Extinct)

Observations & Discussions (p 2)
Keep Populations Separate
Importance of Collection Information not Known
Breeder’s Response:
“Inform Us of the Most Critical Species
and we will start keeping them”
Unanswerable Question at that Time
Dedicated Hobbyists Continue to
Encourage Others to Participate
