for clubs and societies in the south-east of England:
This show is designed for Natural History and Photographic clubs.
BRITISH NATIVE MARINE AQUARIA. THE SEASIDE ROCKPOOLER
A variation on the show for
Aquarist clubs and specialist Marine groups.
The
show lasts between 1 & 1½ hours and comprises at least 100 high

and small marine animals (e.g. anemones,
crabs,
echinoderms,
molluscs,
rockpool
fish etc.) found in the shallow waters and on the seashore in the English
Channel and other British seas. Andy will be pleased to answer questions
on the wildlife of the seashore, on photographic
techniques, and on keeping a marine aquarium.
All photographs have been taken by the author (although transparencies
are welcome by others on loan, and one or two have been used in previous
shows).
