My name is Eric Bodrock, age 48. I have been interested in fishkeeping since age 10 when my Mother brought home five Corydoras paleatus, which spawned and started the adventure! By age 20 I had opened my first retail store, have operated three since then, and continue to operate All Oddball Aquatics. I have been active in the Greater Pittsburgh Aquarium Society, Inc. since the mid 70's and at the end of 2007, finally reached the title of "Grand Master Breeder", spawning more than 400 species of fish, including over 60 Corydoradinae species, and accumulated over 4,500 points in the club's Breeders Award Program (BAP) program. Along with my girlfriend, Regina Spotti, we maintain about 120 aquariums at our home and continue to work with many species of fish, with Corys still my focus. I have judged dozens of fish shows, have given many presentations and attended events thru out the USA, Norway, Germany and the UK. My highlight in the hobby has been getting to be such good friends with so many great hobbyists thru out the world.
