SPU, Otto Miller Hall Room 109
Bonus informal talk Friday evening June 12 at Romeo's Pizza in Edmonds

Matt Proctor, aka The Mountain Top Puffer Keeper, is a hobbyist specializing in the keeping and breeding of freshwater pufferfish. If you haven't seen his Instagram or YouTube content, you might have read one of his articles in Amazonas magazine, or even purchased his recently published book Freshwater Pufferfish Made Easy.

Matt will be presenting a talk about the keeping and raising of a variety of commonly-available puffers at our June 13th meeting.

In addition, he will be speaking at a small bonus gathering on the night before -- Friday June 12 at Romeo's Pizza in Edmonds. Order some food and hang with the speaker at 6 PM, talk begins promptly at 7.

After the presentation on Saturday, stay for our Monthly Auction after (sellers, pre-register your stuff here).

Finally, this is our last meeting of the 2025-26 season before we break for summer, so we'll be holding elections of board members for the 2026-27. If interesting in running for the board, please e-mail us at info@gsas.org
