Lee Newman, of Vancouver, Canada, has been keeping freshwater fishes for over 50 years – mostly focusing on South American cichlids. He “reluctantly” shares a modest fish room with his wife, Lisa, while working on a long-term project – still in progress, the identification, ecology, and husbandry of the genus Satanoperca. Now retired, Lee was Curator of the Tropical Department at the Vancouver Aquarium for 28 years. Lee is also an award-winning writer and photographer and has participated in field excursions to Peru, Brazil, and Suriname.
