Hey everyone,
We have had a lot of interest in the upcoming talk from Charles Delbeek and we wanted to outline what his presentation will cover.

Over it's 102 year history, the Waikiki Aquarium has displayed a wide variety of rare and unusual marinelife. This presentation will concentrate on the last 20 years and will include discussions of the husbandry needs of chambered Nautilus, leafy Seadragons, pygmy seahorses and flamboyant cuttlefish. A wide variety of tropical fish such as Abe's Clipperton, Nahacky, Colin's, Hotomatua, and Wraught iron butterflyfish, plus several new and deepwater fish species will also be highlighted. With the advent of new collecting technologies and advances in aquaculture, many of these organisms could become more available to dedicated hobbyists over the next five years.
