Amy Drehmel is a marine and freshwater fish breeder living in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. Amy grew up in Tennessee and was a artist and model before moving to South Carolina with her ex husband Alan Drehmel. With Alan Drehmel, Amy was one of the first marine hobbyist to raise the green wolf eel blenny (Congrogadus subducens). Amy was also one of the first to raise the yellow watchman goby (Cryptocentrus cinctus). Amy wrote about this for Reefkeeping online magazine. Amy continues to work with yellow watchman gobies and other Cryptocentrus species. She is also working on a hybrid Crytocentrus! Amy has also raised many species of clownfish (Amphiprion) including akindynos, ocellaris, percula, bicinctus, "snowflake", frenatus (tomato) and both the black and brown polmnus (saddle clownfish). She has also raised the beautiful Maroon Clownfish (Premnas biaculeatus). Amy continues to raise many different Amphiprion. Amy is currently working with Priolepis gobies and a few eels including the ghost ribbon eel (Pseudechidna brummeri). She is the first to document the leptocephali stage of this eel. Amy has also bred and raised Redhead Gobies (Elacatinus puncticulatus) and Banggai Cardinalfish (Pterapogon kauderni) in captivity.

Many of Amy's adult breeders have been purchased from Tideline Aquatics. We (Tideline Aquatics) bring in the fish from various countries from our supplier of marine fish, Quality Marine in California (including the ghost ribbon eels). Due to the hard work and endurance from hobbyists like Amy Drehmel and the controlled and proper collection of marine fish and invertebrates by companies like Quality Marine, our hobby has advanced to offer many marine species that no longer will require the collection from the wild. Thank you Amy for allowing Tideline Aquatics to post these new and exciting videos on our website!!!
