A more in depth bio of our Jan. speaker.

   Jeff Mountjoy is a sales representative for Martin Mills Inc., a diversified family-owned nutrition business in Elmira, Ontario, Canada. Martin Mills have been manufacturing quality fish and pet foods for over 30 years. For 15 years Jeff has been actively involved in all aspects of product development, sales and marketing of their products and most recently designed their first retail fish food under the PROFISHENT brand.
   Fish keeping and aquaculture have always been of passionate interest to Jeff. In spite of a busy schedule he manages to find time at home to maintain a few large aquaria of cichlids and catfish to the delight? of his wife Leanne and their 3 children. Due to allergies there are no dogs and cats in the Mountjoy home so wet pets rule! This "fish guy" of Martin Mills enjoys meeting fish hobbyists to share our experiences and hopefully learn something from each other so we can all become the best fish keepers possible. Our fish deserve it!

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.  So love the people who treat you right.  Forget about the one's who don't.  Believe everything happens for a reason.  If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.  If it changes your life, let it.  Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
