SPECIAL RECOGNITION:

We here at TASG wish to recognize the following people who have greatly enhanced our knowledge of the Pterophyllum (angelfish) species through their hard work and dedication with angelfish.

Dr. Herbert R. Axelrod, for the many outstanding books and adventuresome articles he has written on the Pterophyllum species. As a major contributor to the hobby and founder of Tropical Fish Hobbyist (TFH) magazine, he has brought excitement and enthusiasm regarding taxonomy, nomenclature, and breeding of the wild Pterophyllum species. His articles has inspired many to pursue "the wild side" of the hobby!

Dr. Joanne Norton. Between May of 1982 and March of 1994, Dr. Joanne Norton published 18 genetics articles (angelfish) in Freshwater And Marine Aquarium (FAMA) magazine. Today, Dr. Norton's work is recognized by Angelfish breeders as a significant accomplishment in Angelfish genetics.
