THE WASATCH MARINE AQUARIUM SOCIETY PRESENTS THE APRIL 2013 PRESIDENCY SPOTLIGHT ON:
 
 
Jon Dinchak  ("jdinchak")
 
 
 

My name is Jon Dinchak and I go by "jdinchak" on the Forum

 
 
 
 
 
 

I joined WMAS shortly after starting our first tank in July of 2009.  This is my first year on the Presidency. I love to expand my knowledge of the hobby by going to club speaking events and even traveling for large shows like Reef-a-poolza, MAX and MACNA. 

 

I have been married 8 years to my amazing wife Bacot, we both have a passion for saltwater and are happy to be enjoying this hobby together. 

 
 
 

I have two active tanks - my 180 gallon custom dream tank and my very unique 55 gallon Garden Eel tank (which I started thanks to information I got from a presentation at the first MWRF). 

 

My next dream tank would be an in-floor sting ray tank.

 

My wife and I are proud of our Garden Eel tank.

 

I am unique in the fact that my wife is the one who got me into the hobby, she is a very passionate aquarist. 

 

Favorite fish - Male Blue Jaw Trigger

 

I from Arizona and spent most of my life in the Phoenix area.  I have been in Salt Lake City now for 5 years. I currently live in Sandy.

 

My other glass box passion is my poison dart frogs, I actually now have more active dart frog tanks then fish tanks.  I have 10 total dart frogs, I just love watching them. 

 

I love to dive when given the chance.  I have dived California, St. Maarten, Saba, Cozumel and the Florida Keys. 

 

I am an avid sports fan, I love almost all sports -  baseball (Atlanta Braves) and football (Green Bay Packers) are my favorites.  Although I am a big ASU fan, when not in conflict I do cheer on the Univ of Utah.

 

I am a project manager in the health care industry.

 

Interesting fact - I got married at Disneyworld and danced with Goofy at my wedding.
