toadfish , when trying to attract females, often "sing" so loudly that they disrupt people on houseboats.
Hi all. My main interests are
Thailand ,
Education ,
Religion ,
Buddhism ,
Film , and
Fishkeeping . I'm the founder and coordinator of
Wikipedia:WikiProject Aquarium Fishes and its
newsletter . I'm also involved with several portals including
Fish Portal (creator, monthly updater),
Amphibians and Reptiles Portal (creator, monthly updater),
Thailand portal (monthly updater of several sections),
Cambodia portal (monthly updater), and
Asia portal (used to monthly update but stopped - it's pointless to keep a portal that doesn't have any readers whatsoever). I also created
The Fish Quiz as part of the Fish Portal.
Awards
The Special Barnstar
Thank you for starting the
Fish Quiz . It is a fun experience the informs us users about fish we were unaware of, gets me more interested in fish, and altogether is informative.
