Good eyes for spotting a female in there. Got some more ideas from the people there, so maybe it will work this season. Will try my best.

What'd you get? What'd you get?! Looks like some plecos and other fishes ( a schooling/shoaling type?). Details!

We got all sorts of fish, the others mainly africans, I don't really know what they are. I was looking for South Americans, and got some pleco for the collection (L106,L183,LDA31), two pair Apistogramma pebas, two pair (so I hope) Ivanacara adoketa, a group of nice Aspidoras albater, and some little Geophagus for impuls.

Plus we stocked up on supplies and equipment for the coming year. Lots of deals.

Will try to find some time to post some pics from the event later this week.

Here is our Party Group at the convention.



I picked up a few fish I wanted.  African Cichlids!!!
It will take a while to grow them out.
-  Julidochromis Dickfeldi,
- labeotropheus trewavasae mpanga

I also picked up a Male Altolamproglogus Calvus Black Congo.

The loot bags were great.  Lots of free samples and magazines.

Also picked up some great little filters for club prizes for the future.

Nice catches guys! *drooling*

Love the shirts!!  I'm so glad you guys were finally able to wear club shirts this year!!

Robert, I googled those Aspidoras albaters.  They're cute little guys!  If you ever get any fry let me know because they would be a perfect addition to my mini fish tank...temp wise and size wise!

The ones I got are about 1 1/2 to 2". Still need to grow a little. Interesting behaviour, like how the look around the tank for something eatable. In the rooms they were going for 10-15 each, depending on size. I got mine at the auction and got lucky, paid the same for all four.

That shouldn't take too long, one pair, if they find each other, are already good size.

Picked up a bag of 6 cories at $40 - thankfully these came towards the end of the auction or I likely would have paid even more. There were not that many cories in total at the auction - varies from year to year. Lots of angel fish and bushy nose plecos though!

WOW! Not bad for fish that can go for north of $40 a piece in stores....

Mark, I was thinking of photo shopping you into the picture for old times sake.

Zenin posted all his pictures on the Extravagana site.

Is anyone having trouble trying to see the photos I posted ?

The links are to albums on Facebook, you should not have to sign in to Facebook to see them.

Some with Internet Explorer are seeing a blank page, there must be a security setting preventing them from seeing the photos, others with Internet Explorer are not having any problem seeing the photos, I don't know what setting it is ?

Some are having success by downloading Google Crome or FireFox and then have no trouble seeing the photos ...
