Hi, my name is Jonathan and I run Monster Fish Rescue. We try and hook people up who are looking for monster fish with people who need homes for their fish! We also rescue fish and rehabilatate them if needed, then place them in appropriate homes! We've come up with MFR shirts to help support this rather expensive process. We recently released the second edition which is an oscar shirt!

I've got some pictures of what the loach shirts (first edition) look like on some darker shirts!

And!! Here's the prototype of the Oscar shirt now available! The oscar on the shirt is going to be about 3" larger, but there's no reason not to show it off and make it available!

Jonathan, we get a lot of spammers that are removed asap. However, your organization and cause does not fall into that category.

Good luck with your work.

One question though. :confused:

Did your parents really give you the name "TheFishGuy" on your birth certificate? That's what it says in your profile as 'Real Name'.:lol:

Thanks so much for that!

And the funny thing is... I get called the fish guy more than my real name LOL

It started when I was a teenager working for a ma and pa pet store then was offered twice the money to open and run the fish room of a bigger store... People would come in and ask "What happened to the fish guy?" And my old boss would actually send them to me at the new place I worked!

Have you been over to MFK, I am sure some of the members might be interested in adopting some of the fish you have?

Hi everyone!
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to the people who have showed their support by purchasing a Monster Fish Rescue T-Shirt. The shirts are definitely conversation starters at your local fish shop, swap meet or auction. Thanks for helping educate other hobbyists about large fish and their proper care! That’s what MFR is all about!
<o:p></o:p>
I’d also like to thank “bell” from the cichlid-forum.com for nominating me for Animal Planets “Hero of the Year Award” You’re a class act bell, thank you!

For more information on the Hero of the Year Award click on the link:

<o:p></o:p>
Since I’m posting I wanted to let people know that I’ve taken your feedback about the shirts and have come up with another option for those who choose not to advertise how much of a fish geek they really are LOL Monster Fish Rescue now has ball caps available!
<o:p></o:p>

You can get them in an array of colors, and if you’d like (upon request) you can even get yourself a Trucker hat in any of the colors available.
<o:p></o:p>
Please keep in mind that I don’t keep shirts and hats in stock, they’re made to order and can take up to four weeks to get them to your door step. Personally I think it’s worth the wait!

Don’t forget to check the site for fish that are up for adoption!

Thanks again! Jonathan (aka TheFishGuy)

Ok, We’re going to try something new… I’ve got three shirts up for auction on eBay. MFR needs donations desperately. The utilities are getting a bit out of hand! Please bid on one of the shirts, or take a look at the site and order yourself a hat or shirt, or make a cash donation. MFR could be on the verge of going under if something doesn’t happen soon. The shirts are doing a good job at getting the name out but do not generate very much $$, and Money is what MFR needs. If you don’t donate because you feel someone else has…. They haven’t. So do your part to make a difference!
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
Thank you to those that have donated, and thank you in advance to those that are about to donate. Keep in mind there’s no minimum to donate. So if you’ve got an extra $1 please help in our fight to educate the new hobbyist and to re-habilitate and re home large fish.

Hi folks, MFR is in need of a 20’x15’ pond liner. I found one on eBay for $100 or so including shipping. So I thought I’d come on all the sites and see if people are willing to donate to reach the goal of $100. I’m expecting some large fish shortly and need the room! I belong to 26 forums, so if I only got $4 from one person on every forum we’d make the goal! Here’s the link to the pond liner I’d like to get:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A:IT&ih=012[/url ([URL]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220245334999&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=012)]
Or if someone has pond liner to donate that’d be great! Thanks again to all the MFR supporters! You guys are great!
Jonathan

The print shop used my idea for the lettering, and the fish are pictures of fish either taken here or subbmitted. I'm actually looking for someone with photoshop to do the next shirt.... The photos need to be photoshoped........ Do you know anyone?
