 The Marinelife Aquarium Society of Michigan is pleased to announce the MASM Breeder's Workshop! Please join us for an exciting afternoon with two of the brightest stars in the marine breeding realm... Matthew Wittenrich  Matthew Wittenrich is a marine biologist who has been deeply involved with the aquarium world since the age of 15. He is currently pursuing his doctorate at Florida Institute of Technology in Melbourne Florida, with research projects centered in the Philippines. Matthew has successfully raised over 56 species of marine fish and shrimp. His research focuses on the development of feeding abilities in early stage larvae of coral reef fishes. & Matt Pedersen  Matt Pedersen currently resides in Duluth, MN, and has been a marine aquarist for 23 years, and an aquarist for 28 years. Matt's current area of interest is marine fish breeding. He has currently spawned 17 species of marine fish, successfully raising five of them including one worldwide first (the Harlequin Filefish, Oxymonacanthus longirostris). Matt Pedersen is credited with starting MOFIB and writing for multiple publications. Matt was awarded "Aquarist of the Year" honors by both IMAC West and MASNA in 2009 in recognition of his accomplishments and contributions to the marine aquarium hobby. In an effort to support and encourage captive breeding, MASM has designed a workshop that will both inspire and assist anyone that is interested in captive breeding.
The Workshop will begin with presentations relating to the captive breeding of marine organisms by both speakers.
After a short break, attendees will have plenty of "one on one" time to ask questions and discuss their own, personal, breeding efforts.
The Workshop will be held at the Cranbrook Institute of Science on Saturday, March 13, 2010, starting at 1pm.
Admission is free to MASM members. Non-members can purchase tickets in advance for $5, here:

Program

A few other pieces of information to go along with the event. There are multiples of most of the door prize items but they will go first come first serve ( 1 per person ) so that we don't have to deal with a drawing on Saturday. Checkin will start about 12:30 so we can get started with the program right at 1pm. If there is something you really want from the door prize list I suggest getting at 12:30 for checkin. MASM will also be presenting our first round of trophies for MBI Participants at this event.  For more information the the Marine Breeding Initiative ( MBI) visit: www.masm.org/mbi_DashBoard.aspx

For those that have been to Cranbrook before you will need to go the Main Entrance and not the West Entrance that you have gone to in the past for the swap and conference. The people at the front desk will point you to the auditorium for the workshop.
