House of Fins, a Connecticut-based aquarium store that specializes in rare fish and high end aquarium installations, held their 53rd anniversary and SPLASH event earlier this month. The event featured several guest speakers, including Bob Fenner, Jake Adams, Scott W. Michael, and a few others. While we weren’t able to attend first hand, Jessy Timko (of Creative Soup) has generously allowed to share some of her images, which feature many very rare fish such as the wrought iron butterfly (Chaetodon daedalma), neon hogfish (Bodianus sanguineu), Armitaga angelfish (supposed hybrid angel), and finally the über expensive Liopropoma africanum basslet.
See below for several more pictures of the event.
