Three friends school you on all things fish.
Did you ever wish there was a real School of Wizardry except for fish? You're in luck! In today's episode, "Marine Science Magnet High School," the crew gets educated with Eric Litvinoff from the Marine Science Magnet High School. Connecticut has excellent magnet schools which are paid for by tax dollars and allow for equal opportunity attendance for anyone in the state. MSMHS is one of those schools and it focuses on all things aquaculture. Not only do they have a very impressive program but they also are affecting legislative change and even making money for the school by growing captive bred fish and corals and providing them to hobbyists and distributors! The students often pick the species they want to grow and culture which means they have a much more vested interest in their animals. Come join us for a fun filled adventure through the molding of young scientific minds! Be sure to check out their Instagram to see all of the latest amazing things the school is up to, including some gorgeous photos of coral!This podcast is brought to you by the sergeant major. This fish earned its name for its vertical stripes much like the military commanders who earned their stripes on the battlefield. Surprisingly the sergeant major is a type of damselfish, but at 22 cm in length, they are hardly little helpless things. Being a sergeant major isn't an impressive feat. They …are …everywhere. From the Northeastern United States to South America and from Portugal to Western Africa, there are few places in the Atlantic that aren't infested with these abundant fish. Cheers to you, sergeant major. We at Gettin Fishy salute you.Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our new website at www.gettinfishywithit.com.

Were you ever envious of the powers of Aquaman? In today's episode, "Training Sharks and Rays", the crew explores the fascinating world of training sea creatures. But did you know it's not just dolphins and sea lions that are trainable? Sharks and rays can be taught to do all sorts of things! We can train them to come to a specific location or sit on a hammock, all to enable them to participate in their own healthcare or move them to a new enclosure! Join us as we learn all about it with our new friend, Kaia, an aquarist at Sea Life Orlando! Thank you so much to Kaia for joining us this week!This podcast is brought to you by the blind goby… Typhlogobius californiensis. Adults of this species are completely blind and lack pigmentation. Imagine a naked mole rat with fins as limbs and no teeth. There! You've got it. The blind goby lives in a perpetual obligate relationship with a crustacean host with whom it shares its burrow for its entire life. The shrimp provides the burrow which gives the fish shelter and the fish keeps the burrow clean by being a good roommate. Without the shrimp's burrow, the blind goby would be unable to survive. Cheers to you, blind goby. May your burrow be clean and your shrimp be well fed. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our new website at www.gettinfishywithit.com.

In today's episode, "Federal Funding for Fish Conservation and Human Health," the crew discusses federal funding, its importance in the lives of fish and how we benefit as humans. We cover the US Fish & Wildlife Service, the US Department of Agriculture, the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Association, the National Institutes of Health, and the Environmental Protection Agency. Most of these agencies cost billions of dollars but they also save us billions in health costs, save countless lives and provide the nearly immeasurable intrinsic value that is resource and conservation services. When you add these all together, they comprise only 5% of the total US federal budget. We chat about the role of each agency, how it helps us and how you can get more information about them. At the end of the day, these agencies have open books because they are accountable to us and we think it's important to take them seriously.This podcast is brought to you by the bony eared assfish. Need we say more?For some more information, if you are interested:Check out the US Fish and Wildlife Service website to learn more about the important work they do to improve and preserve wild spaces and species.Check out the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture website to learn how they work to provide for healthy ecosystems as well as for the needs of Americans.Here's an article we referenced about who benefits from dismantling the Environmental Protection Agency.United for Medical Research shared a report on the profound impact that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) research funding has on the economy.If you want to see how your region is potentially affected by the federal funding cuts to science and research, you can check out SCIMaP.Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In today's episode, "Zebrafish Husbandry Reporting & Reproducibility Initiative (Part 1)," we talk with former Zebrafish Husbandry Association President Michelle Altemara about her new initiative to standardize reporting in fish research papers. Science has a reproducibility problem and oftentimes it's because we don't account for all of the variables. Sometimes, “we keep fish on a recirculating rack” is not a good enough way to describe husbandry. If two different facilities are keeping fish at completely different light cycles, the scientific outcomes might be very different! Luckily Michelle and her colleagues are trying to change that by working with journals to advocate for better guidelines on this exact thing. Come listen!This podcast is brought to you by the lungfish. The lungfish quite literally possesses lungs but it also possesses working gills, making it one of the most adaptable species on earth. Other fish might consider them cheaters for having both functioning organs while fish and other animals only possess one. This leads to lungfish often being ostracized at parties and left out of group activities. Cheers to you lungfish. You were born this way and you are special.

In this episode, "Species Spotlight: Sturgeon," the crew shines a spotlight on sturgeons! Let's dive into all the facts about these prehistoric & gentle boop noodles!This podcast is brought to you by the mosquitofish. These tiny fish are not bloodsucking pests as their names might suggest but rather they consume mosquito larva with gusto. Mosquito fish are the most widespread fish in the world mostly due to humans trying to use them to keep down mosquito populations. However in true human fashion, we failed to recognize that there were already indigenous fish doing just that. As a result, those fish were outcompeted thanks to these little hungry buggers… and of course humans who ruin everything. So cheers to you mosquitofish. It's not your fault that humans are like this.Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/.

In this episode, "Story Time with Josh Barber," Josh shares an extremely bizarre story about his senior year in college and the first job opportunity he ever got to work on an ornamental fish farm. This story goes off the rails quickly and the red flags are everywhere! Yet young 21 year old Josh was not to be dissuaded. Come along as Josh takes us back to 2010 as he details his email correspondence. **Warning** there are references to sexual assault in this episode. Not for young listeners.This podcast is brought to you by…the common dolphinfish. The original name was just “dolphin” however, it became very confusing due to dolphins also existing. And so the Dolphinfish was born even though it looks nothing at all like a dolphin. These blue green and golden wonders reach sexual maturity and size within a blazing 4 months time. They are also delicious on a dinnerplate. Cheers to you dolphinfish.Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/.

In this episode, we interview two of the developers of Fish Game, Erin and Ryan Davis! We talk to them about their lives and about how they came to be involved with this exciting and very realistic game. If you are looking for a realistic fish simulation game then this is the game for you. Enjoy our conversation as we nerd out about the intricacies of developing a fish videogame!We can't even begin to tell you how much we recommend Fish Game. It is such an incredible and charming simulation of freshwater fish keeping. Definitely give it a try! You can find the game on Steam and you can also support them via their Patreon. If you check out our Twitch or our Youtube, you can find previous videos of us exploring the game when it was really new, including a tank design competition that Josh and Christine took part in! This game is such a clear labor of love for all involved, and it is great to see how many updates have occurred and continue to occur since we first discovered it!This podcast is brought to you by the Hillstream Loach, the flying squirrel of the aquatic world. Like a flying squirrel, their large flat fins span their entire bodies, giving the appearance of a flying saucer, and they use these adaptations to cling to the surface of rocks in fast flowing streams. In Germany, these loaches are called “flossensaugers” which translates to “Lizardfish”. Despite its name, no hillstream loaches are lizards, nor do they reside on hills at all because surely they'd dry out and die. And we wouldn't want that for our flat little friends. Cheers to you, hillstream loach and may you cling to life as you do so well to rocks. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this episode, "Shark Myths", the Gettin' Fishy crew breaks down the shark-iest myths! Sharks are awesome and fearsome and the subject of many movies and shows. The problem with this is that not every creator does their research and rumors can spread quickly. Today we debunk the top myths in the shark world. Is the Megalodon still living? Can sharks smell blood from a mile away? Will sharks die if they stop swimming? Lets find out!This podcast is brought to you by the javelin. These fish are found off the coast of Australia and NZ and are found at depths from 80 to 500 metres. When not feeding on cephalopods, other fishes and crustaceans, the javelin can be found at track meets, being hurled long distances. The longest javelin throw is over 98 metres. Ouch.

In this episode, the Gettin' Fishy With It crew dispels some popular fish myths! From tank size to fish memory to a whole lot about the concept of pain, we leave no stone unturned except we actually do…which is why you'll see another episode about myths next month! Next up: shark and ray myths! This podcast is brought to you by the glass catfish, more specifically the ghost catfish or Kryptopterus vitreolus. The latin word “kryptos” means “hidden” and the latin word “vitreus” means glass. And with good reason. These creatures are almost entirely transparent. Imagine looking into a mirror and only seeing your eyes and a jumble of guts staring back at you. It would freak out all but the faint hearted. Your body may be invisible but your bravery certainly isn't. Cheers to you, glass catfish. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this episode, the crew looks back on 2024 and talks about their favorite episodes. When you summarize it all, we had quite an adventure! We attended and participated in a gaming convention, we appeared on a few science shows and we shared our knowledge at conferences. We had a ton of great guests as well! Conservation biologists, principal investigators, PhD students, science communicators and experts in their fields all made up a long list of great episodes. Thank you SO much for listening and being a part of this venture! This podcast is brought to you by the common hatchetfish. If you've seen a hatchetfish, you know immediately how it got its name. Originating in South America, these warm water species are quick to jump when alarmed. In the hobby, this means you'd better have a lid on your tank. But not for the reason you might think. The hatchetfish has been known to jump out of the tank and chop down all nearby trees in a neighborhood in less than one week's time. They are the number one source of deforestation in the Amazon and should not be trifled with. Cheers to you, hatchetfish…just know that we're watching you.

In this episode, "Australia New Zealand Association of Aquarium Professionals," the crew is joined by Lauren Pandolfo and Cameron Mackey, two board members of the Australia New Zealand Association of Aquarium Professionals (ANZAAP). Lauren is the Zebrafish Genetics Core Director at Baylor University and Cameron is the Aquarium Facility Manager at the University of Melbourne. Although they both serve on the ANZAAP board, these are voluntary positions! We learn how they got interested in fish, a bit about their career paths and about the benefit of this new organization which is helping to bring more knowledge on keeping our fishy friends in captivity. Come along! This podcast is brought to you by Parexocoetus brachypterus, commonly known as the flying ttfish. These fish are adept at leaping from the water to escape their predators. They can travel at speeds up to 70 km/h and can cover distances from 50 meters to as many at 400. The record flight by a flying fish was recorded at 45 seconds which is longer than my description of this fish will be. The French named one of their anti-ship missiles the exocet, after their latin name because of the way they skim the water surface at a low trajectory before striking their targets. But nautical warfare aside, the flying fish gets to accomplish what few fish ever can. And for that, we thank you. Cheers to you, flying fish! Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In today's episode, "Fish in Space!", the Gettin' Fishy Crew travel into the great beyond with Dr. Moiya McTier, astrophysicist, folklorist and host of the podcast Pale Blue Pod! We chat about different “fish-stronauts” who have traveled to space for scientific purposes and we get to learn about some very interesting fish related folklore about the stars. Did you know that the mummichog was the first fish into space? Do you not know what a Mummichog is? Did you know that in some cultures, a celestial fish gave birth to the galaxies? Come find out! This podcast is brought to you by Danio margaritatus, or the celestial pearl danio, otherwise known as the galaxy rasbora. These fish are located in a very small part of Burma, Southeast Asia and have become a mainstay in the hobby due to their bright colors and small size. Even though this tiny marvel is named after the heavens, it has sadly never been to space. It has been said that each galaxy danio looks up into the night sky and yearns to become one with the stars. It has been said only once, by me, just now. Cheers to you, celestial pearl danio! Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

This podcast is brought to you by the crocodile icefish, found in the freezing cold waters of the Southern Ocean around Antarctica. Water around this area reaches temperatures below freezing and the Icefish survive in this climate thanks to their colorless blood which lacks hemoglobin. They are the only known vertebrates to lack this key protein. They are one of the largest consumers of patagonia outdoor clothing, donning their fleeces and ski jackets in an attempt to stay as warm as possible. Cheers to you, crocodile icefish. May you stay warm forever in our hearts. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/.

In this episode, "Species Spotlight: Siamese Fighting Fish", the crew breaks down the wild world of bettafish. The Siamese Fighting fish have a myriad of evolutionary adaptations and behaviors which help them survive in tough environments. We learn about how bettas became introduced into the hobby and that they have been cared by humans for over 1000 years! Lastly, we learn about the research implications of using bettas as a model organism and some of the recent studies using them. This podcast is brought to you by the pirate perch. This swashbuckling specimen makes its home in Eastern and Central North America. They are one of the only fish known to exhibit chemical camouflage, emitting a chemical that masks their scent, hiding them from potential prey items. Oddly, they also have an anus that slowly migrates toward from their tails to their chins as they age. Surprisingly, these perch have little to do with actual pirates. Maybe pirates hiding amongst the fog and capturing unwitting ships could be analogous to the perch's chemical camouflage and eating of prey. But who really knows. Your guess is as good as mine! There. We've solved it! Cheers to you, pirate perch! Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/.

On today's menu, "Laboratory Fish Nutrition," the crew discusses the intricacies of fish nutrition. They explain the benefits of standardizing feeding and why we use animal models in research. Amber breaks down the nutrient classifications of fish feeds followed by the benefits and downsides of live feeds. We discuss both macro- and micronutrients, and why both are important to fish. Lastly, the crew talk about the future hopes for fish feed which will help further standardize our research outcomes. This podcast is brought to you by the sea robin. These ocean bottom dwelling fish have long, fan shaped pectoral fins that resemble wings, which is how they got their name. And yet these aren't their only attributes that resemble other animals. They have bony armor like an armadillo and when caught, they croak like a frog using their swim bladders. Did I mention how ugly they are? Maybe this is why they are nocturnal, so they don't have to catch themselves in a mirror. Anyways, cheers to you, sea armadillofrogrobin. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this week's episode, "Fish and the Agricultural Research Service," the crew interviews two fish biologists from the Agricultural Research Service, Dr. Bart Green and Dr. Brian Ott. Their jobs are to optimize the culturing of fish for human use for food fish and for raising bait. They conduct many research studies to accomplish this, which we chat about! They primarily focus on certain fish species including hybrid striped bass, tilapia and channel catfish. They also discuss their career trajectories and explain some of the amazing technologies employed in their field. Some of the ways they deal with oxygen and nitrogen levels are especially interesting! This podcast is brought to you by the goldfish. Despite being named after a precious metal, most of these fish are not treated at all as prize precious possessions. Oftentimes they end up as carnival prizes or party favors, destined for doom at the hands of an inquisitive child. But sometimes, goldfish are the starter pet which brings about a life-long love of fish for someone. And for that, we thank you. Cheers to the goldfish, and remember, never release them into the wild. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this episode, "History of Fishkeeping," the crew learns about how some folks were keeping fish in glass tanks since the Victorian era (say wha?) and that women were some of the first aquarists! This podcast is brought to you by the bluestreak cleaner wrasse, the janitor/dentist/parasitologist of the sea. These pretty little specimens spend their days removing parasites from the gills, teeth and skin of many types of large fish. And this task can be daunting! The brave little wrasse will willingly enter the giant maw of a grouper or the toothy gape of a moray eel. And yet these large predators have respect for what the cleaner wrasse does and do not consume them. After all, if you don't have fingers or floss, how else can you get things out from between your teeth? Cheers to you, bluestreak cleaner wrasse and thank you for making the ocean a cleaner place to live. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this episode, "Gettin' Squiddy With It!", we invite squid scientist and sci-comm extraordinaire, Dr. Diana Li, to talk about her initial forays into science, her love of squid and her job as the Associate Director of Education and Training Initiatives at Columbia University. Join us as she regales us with tales of squiddy adventures in science. She has been a guest on Science Friday, Facts Machine Podcast & Live show, Nerd Nite, Secret Science Club and Story Collider. Follow her on her various socials and don't forget to visit her website for upcoming features! This podcast is brought to you by the Lookdown fish, the most judgmental fish in the sea. These fish are constantly looking down on others, judging them on their fishy business. If anyone is to be judged it should be Carl Linnaeus who named them in 1758. Couldn't have thought of a more original name Carl? We can only be glad he didn't name more fish this way or we'd be studying species like the swimfish, or the eatfish, or the famed breaths-through-gillsfish. Cheers to you anyways, Lookdown fish, but not to you Carl. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/.

In this episode, "Fish of the Week!", the crew joins powers with Katrina Liebich and Guy Eroh to talk about their podcast, Fish of the Week. They break down their interest in fish growing up, how their fishy careers developed and what they are doing now. Lastly, they discuss how their podcast came to fruition and why it benefits society (hint: it does!). They also share the importance of the role of indigenous people in fish and their podcast. This podcast is brought to you by the bristlemouth fish. The bristlemouth is the most abundant fish in the entire ocean. It is estimated that there are up to a quadrillion individuals on earth, or one million billions. If there is any fish in the sea that has issues with individuality, it's these fish. Most are bioluminescent, which would normally seem special, but when one quadrillion of your cousins can do the same thing, are you really that special? Cheers to you, bristlemouth fish and your truly prolific nature. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It! You can find our website with show notes at https://gettingfishypod.substack.com/.

In this episode, "Weird Things Fish Eat," the crew gets weird with fish and the things fish eat! Fish don't just eat other fish. Sometimes they eat birds, insects and even license plates! Some sharks eat each other inside their mom. There's even a shark that eats vegetation! It's an action packed buffet of info for you as they break down the odd tasting menu of the aquatic world. This podcast is brought to you by the white margin stargazer. It earned the name stargazer from the fact that its face points almost directly up to the heavens. The stargazer buries itself in the sand, waiting for unsuspecting prey to swim overhead before popping out and consuming them using its needle-like teeth. The stargazer also has electric organs behind its eyes with which it can zap a fellow fish with 50 volts. Shocking, I know. As if it wasn't powerful enough, these fish also have venomous spines to puncture anything that steps on them. Cheers to you White Margin Stargazer and may we never cross paths.

In this episode, "Aquatics Training and Continuing Education Opportunities," the crew breaks down important approaches to training technicians in the aquatic space. They highlight the usefulness of in-person training and workshops, live online courses, online training modules and organizations that help equip you with what you need to care for your aquatic animals in the lab and elsewhere. Conferences are a great way not only to learn and attend courses but also to network so that you can learn from each other and avoid the dreaded information silo. This podcast is brought to you by the Green humphead parrotfish. This is the largest species of parrotfish and can be found in the Indo-Pacific region. These parrotfish are known to eat coral polyps and their hard calcium carbonate skeletons which they consume and defecate out as sand. Yes, that's right, the sand that you've been making that sand castle out of? It's the poop of millions of parrotfish from years past. Cheers to you, dear parrotfish, and may you poop out many more white, beautiful beaches.

We discuss why science communication is so important, and we play a round of trivia! Thanks so much to Rob for joining us this week. This podcast is brought to you by the wolf eel, the grumpy looking grandfathers of the sea. Despite their appearance, wolf eels are quite friendly, and engage in activities such as underwater shuffleboard, golf and occasionally swimming in a bathtub of Centrum Silver. Yes they do occasionally yell at kids to get off their lawn of sea grass but sometimes, being stern is necessary. Cheers to you, wolf eel. Enjoy your retirement.

In this episode, “Zebrafish as a Model for Developmental Neuroscience”, the crew discusses why zebrafish are an important model for developmental neuroscience! This podcast is brought to you by the pilot fish. Despite its name, you will never hear these striped fish on the intercom during a flight.

In this episode, “Zebrafish as a Model for Infectious Disease”, the crew discusses why zebrafish are an important model for infectious diseases! This podcast is brought to you by the blobfish, an inhabitant of the deep sea of the coast of Australia and New Zealand. They live at depth of up to 12 hundred meters under pressure 120 times that of sea level. One would think that the blobfish being under such immense pressure would lead to self sabotaging addictions such as overeating, chain smoking and perhaps over-imbibing in alcohol, however the blobfish somehow manages. Maybe it takes one look in the mirror and realizes that it's too ghastly looking to be concerned about such things. What an ugly mug! Now that's a face only another could love.

This podcast is brought to you by the krill. Krill are known to be one of the most important and abundant prey species on earth. They provide nutrients to whales, fish and birds alike. There are so many, that some of them suffer from feeling like they lack individualism, leading to them acting out in various ways.

In this episode, “The Brine Shrimp Harvest Industry”, the crew is joined by wildlife biologist, Ashley Kijowski, as they discuss the history of artemia cyst harvesting in Utah's Great Salt Lake and how these "shrimpy" little critters are not shrimp at all! This podcast is brought to you by the brine shrimp, Artemia salina. Popularized in the early 60's, these tiny household pets were marketed as sea monkeys. However they have nary a trait that monkeys possess. They do not eat fruit, nor do they groom each other. One would certainly question the first creators of this live product. But then again, thanks to them, the brine shrimp has become a household name, hoisted into the limelight over its other shrimpy cousins. The brine shrimp can be found walking the red carpet of fish award shows signing autographs for new hobbyists. Cheers to you, brine shrimp. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this episode, “Starting Your First Fish Tank”, the crew discusses all the things you need to know about preparing for your first ever freshwater fish tank! Which fish to choose? What components are important for a fish tank? How do you keep the water clean? This podcast is brought to you by the sarcastic fringehead. Despite its name, the sarcastic fringehead is incapable of sarcasm. Instead, its superpower is opening its gigantic mouth and lips, revealing a fearsome grimace. Males face off with these over-the-top displays, hoping that the largest mouth will scare off competitors. Cheers to you, sarcastic fringehead. May you always look surprised and angry!

They discuss her fascinating career path from grad student in an academic lab to the COO of a startup and how the company's platform, the EggSorter, is bringing the power of AI and automation to fish facilities around the world. This podcast is brought to you by Bionomous: bringing automation to the lab. And brought to you by…blowfish! The blowfish is able to blow itself much like a balloon. Except this balloon isn't released by a poor crying child eating ice cream. They inflate themselves with water, becoming caught in the throat of their predators. Impressive feats, dear blowfish!

In this episode, "Navigating Regulations in Laboratory Fish Research", the crew delves into the intricate yet essential regulatory framework that encompasses various fish species employed in scientific research. Let's make regulations fun! This podcast is brought to you by the African Turquoise Killifish. The name “Killifish” is of Germanic origin, with the root word meaning “bay” or “gulf”. Some might guess that with the word “kill" being part of their name that they might be ferocious creatures, however they are actually a lovely laboratory species, capable of getting along with tankmates. The killifish is an excellent model for aging studies due to its short life cycle and because of the dry season in Africa, many parents don't live to see their offspring. Don't worry, ghost killifish parents, your children are doing just fine and you should be proud of them. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

Discover the most commonly seen species, learn essential care techniques, and gain insights on creating a happy and healthy home tank for these aquatic wonders. This podcast is brought to you by the false cleaner fish. Cleaner wrasses peacefully clean the sensitive gills of large predatory fish, removing parasites.

In this episode, "Staffing and Compensation for Aquatics Technicians", the crew chats with Dr. Raphael Malbrue, an Attending Veterinarian and Director for the Center for Comparative Medicine at UVA, about the complex topic of hiring and properly compensating aquatics technicians and managers. This podcast is brought to you by the anchovy. The pepperoni of the fish kingdom. It's a shame that these beautiful little fish have been reduced to a pizza topping. They school in massive groups, opening their mouths to consume food, but it looks as if they are yawning. Maybe they're bored. We're sorry to bore you, anchovy. Cheers to you anchovy.

In this episode, "Cuttlefish Husbandry and Research", the crew talks to Connor Gibbons, a Cephalopod Facility Manager, about all things cephalopods and their applications in a research setting. Curious about the distinction between arms and tentacles? Tune in to discover the answer! This podcast is brought to you by the Giant sunfish, the largest bony fish in the world. Truthfully they look more like aliens than fish. With large paddle-like fins on the top and bottom, they traverse the depths looking for prey, all the while sporting an open mouthed expression which resembles sheer surprise. Maybe because it got a glimpse of itself in the reflection of a nearby boat hull and thought to itself “is that what I really look like”? Cheers to you, giant sunfish, may your ugly mug grace the high seas forever. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

In this episode, "A Year in Review", the crew reflects on the past season and discusses what they'd like to see in season two of the GFWI podcast! This podcast is brought to you by the Mexican tetra or Astyanax mexicanus. These fish are famous for a subset of their species assuming a blind cave form which adapted to living in the darkness. These fish have no eyes and only sunken holes where eyes should be. That's right, these fish are like the blind "Smeagols" of the fish world. Pale, creepy looking and probably guarding some sort of magic ring. If only Charles Darwin could've seen this perfectly imperfect result of microevolution. Cheers to you, Mexican tetras.

In this episode, "Aquatic Veterinary Medicine (with Dr. Michelle Greenfield -Feig/Aquadocs)", the crew is joined by Michelle Greenfield-Feig DVM, CertAqV, the host of the Aquadocs Podcast, for an in-depth conversation on aquatic veterinary medicine! Our discussion delves into professional development and career prospects for aspiring veterinarians, while also providing valuable tips for those seeking a career in aquatic animal health. This podcast is brought to you by the Ornate Boxfish. These fish do not live in boxes but rather are found swimming amongst coral reefs. They might come in a box if you bought one at a pet store, but more likely, they'd be transported in a bag. They can also be found running illegal underground boxing rings. They are the number one fish offender of tax evasion. Cheers Ornate Boxfish and good luck with your illegal meddling! Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

The month of October is RVT Month in Canada, and the third week of October is National Veterinary Technician Week in the USA. We wish all credentialed technicians an incredible month, and all the best in your essential, diverse roles as part of the animal health team. Keep up the amazing work. This podcast is brought to you by the foxface rabbitfish. The foxface rabbitfish possess a name that seems like an oxymoron. After all, foxes eat rabbits. But the foxface rabbitfish refuses to be labeled. It swims around proudly, displaying its venomous spikes as if to say, “what are you going to do about it human? After all, you named me. In reality, I look more like a yellow raccoon. So whose fault is that?” Cheers to you, foxface rabbitfish, and we're sorry for naming you. Thanks for listening to Gettin' Fishy With It!

From gigantic carp that jump into your boat, to aquatic vampires that suck the blood of their fishy-lakemates, we get to know some of these scary invaders! We also cover the response of local governmental bodies and how they prevent further spread of invasives. If we could summarize one valuable lesson from the episode, it would be: Don't release pet fish into the wild. This podcast is brought to you by the seven figure pygmy goby. With the shortest lifespan of any known vertebrate, these fish are the epitome of “life is too short”. As a result, these fish can be found bungee jumping, sky diving and doing a whole host of dangerous activities. Wouldn't you, if your life was only 59 days long?

In episode 7, we are joined by Ernesto Gagarin, a Research Assistant in a zebrafish lab at Columbia University. He will be joining the University of Chicago in the fall to start his PhD! With another fish fan on the podcast this week, we wasted no time to start nerding out about fish keeping and how it has shaped our current paths in life. Having a closet and/or a bathroom full of fish tanks is clearly a key to future success in our respective fields in science. We eventually get ourselves onto the topic at hand (no pun intended), and discuss what a day in the lab looks like for Ernesto, and why zebrafish are a great model organism for studying joint regeneration. We hope you enjoy the episode! This podcast is brought to you by the Chilean Sea Bass. This staple in the seafood market is known to grace many restaurant menus. However this is only due to a renaming of its common name, the patagonian tooth fish. It's living proof that sometimes all you need is a rebranding campaign. Cheers to you, Chilean Sea Bass!
