gartner Otto Gartner Otto Gartner died in 2018. Aquarists know him from his very readable reports about West African fish and plants, and a special issue dedicated to his contributions in crinum and anbias was recently published. The kilifish was named for him. I owe him my enthusiasm for Barbus Jae, various killifish and nannocharax. These photos were made when I saw him for the the last time in may 2013.

gosse Philip Henry Gosse 1810 - 1888 English naturalist and popularizer of natural science, virtually the inventor of the seawater aquarium, and a painstaking innovator in the study of marine biology. The aquarium craze was launched in early Victorian England by Gosse who created and stocked the first public aquarium at the London Zoo in 1853, and coined the term "aquarium" when he published the first manual, The Aquarium: An Unveiling of the Wonders of the Deep Sea, in 1854. Gosse was also the author of Omphalos, an attempt to reconcile the geological ages presupposed by Charles Lyell with the biblical account of creation. After his death, Gosse was portrayed as a despotic father of uncompromising religious views in Father and Son (1907), a memoir written by his son, the poet and critic Edmund Gosse.
