Title: CAOAC Convention afterward
Post by: missavgp on May 18, 2015, 10:55:14 PM
Hi all, just wanted to share some of the pictures from the weekend. I was really excited that my betta albimarginata pair came in first in their wild class. Everyone who entered the first IBC betta show held in Canada in 40 years won something for one of their entries.
Had a great time and met some great people, including the president of the IBC Gerald Griffin, his wife Kayla, and Larissa Williams who came from the US to judge the show and give some talks on wild bettas, betta genetics and judging, as well as Rachel Franklin ( got a copy of her book, The 101 best Freshwater Nano Species) and I also got to meet Jessica Bullock as she was there this weekend as well.
