Brian Glazier

I have been in the hobby for over 65 Years – Started when I was 6 years old with some feeder type guppies. My main interests are Livebearers (Swordtails & Guppies) and Killies.  Clubs that I am a member of are the London Aquaria Society, Hamilton District Aquarium Society and St Catherines & Area Aquarium Society.

I hold a Judges Certificate plus a Senior Merit Award for Livebearers from C.A.O.A.C plus several other certificates and awards (Hobbyist of the Year, Service Award and Champion of Champions twice).
I also hold the A.L.A. Century Breeders Award (Breading of a hundred different livebearers). 

I speak on several different subjects – Killies, Livebearers and Live food collecting and culturing of live foods.
