Steigerwaldt
My name is Jim Steigerwaldt, and I am 56 yrs. old and have been retired
from the Penna.State Police, since July 1995.I am currently employed
as a "Limousine driver", and enjoy this type of work very much. I
am married to Diane for 32 years and have one (1) son - Jimmy, who is 31 and
married, living in Green Tree, Pa.
It was my wife and son, who got me involved with fish, many moons ago. They
attended a show held at the Northway Mall, and came home with a ten gallon tank,
and if I remember right a pair of "guppies". Well, the tank became
mine shortly thereafter. We joined G.P.A.S.I., became an officer, bought my
first pair of killies at a GPASI auction, around 1975. I fell in love with them,
so I joined the AKA.
My killies, now, are kept in a 150 gallon tank. All males!!
Annulatus, Australes ( Orange, Gold, Chocolate), I have a few pairs of killies,
in gallon jars. When I heard that an "old", young friend of mine was
starting up an affiliate club - PAKA, I got in touch with him (Eric Bodrock)
and became a charter member. Maybe, someday, I'll get back into breeding, but
for now, I just enjoy my "BIG" tank. I am extremely proud of my new
found friends in PAKA, cause not only are they "Full of it", they
are extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of fish(killie) keeping.
