Rappin' With ReefBum is a LIVE talk show with host Keith Berkelhamer and guests from the reef keeping community. In this episode I chat with Hunter Hammond.

Hunter is a hobbyist who is also an expert on the captive care of all reef safe wrasses. He is known as "The Wrasse Guy" and you can learn more about this passion of his at thewrasseguy.com.

In this episode we talk about wrasses as well as the latest on the situation at Reef2Reef concerning the LGBTQ community.

Here is some more background on Hunter. He has a 270g peninsula reef featuring numerous rare wrasses and he has written many articles about these fish. He was a speaker at MACNA 2017, RAP 2019, and a panelist at Mini-Macna 2021.

In his local community, Hunter has acted as the club president for AZ FRAG for several years. Additionally, on a national level, he is involved with the Rainbow Reefers.

He has been in the marine hobby since 2009 and lives in Phoenix, Arizona with his husband and their Thai Ridgeback dog. For his day job, Hunter is a structures engineer in the aerospace propulsion engine industry.
