Do you love tropical fish? Want to meet many other aquarium enthusiasts? Just
want to learn more about tropical fish, their care, breeding techniques, etc?
Then you need to pay a visit to The San Diego Tropical Fish Society!

The San Diego Tropical Fish Society is a not-for-profit hobby organization
founded in 1948. The objects of the society are to bring together a congenial
group of people mutually interested in tropical and exotic fishes, to promote
interest in, further the study of, and encourage the preservation of aquatic
life.

You are cordially invited to attend our next meeting in room 101, Casa Del
Prado, Balboa Park, San Diego, California at 7:00 PM on the second Sunday of
every month. Visitors are always welcome! HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE! Next
meeting is on February 9th, 2003!

Our friendly meetings include an informational program on something fishy, a
bowl show for members to compete with their favorite fishes against other
members, the opportunity to talk to fish experts about your questions, as well
as monthly fish-oriented field trips. We have a club raffle table at every
meeting where you can win great fish related prizes like tanks, filters, foods,
and locally bred fish and aquatic plants! Twice a year we hold auctions for
fish, plants and equipment, which is a great way to find those hard to find
fish! (1/2 of proceeds go to the club treasury).We host an annual show each
November and have a number of junior members also! Even a fish breeding award
program! We're family friendly and fun! If you have questions or need
directions, please call our fish phone at 619-281-FISH and leave a message.
Someone will be in touch with you shortly.

Our members are interested in a wide range of fish, from livebearers and
catfish, to cichlids, show guppies, killifish,aquatic plants,goldfish, just
about everything else, including marine fish. We have some incredibly
knowledgable people, come pick their brains! Many people are breeding many
fish, if you have been looking for something unusual or rare, some of our
members might even have it.
Hope to see you at one of the upcoming meetings, you will be glad you found us.
SEE YOU THERE!

Just a heads up! The tropical fish club meeting is this Sunday, February 9th, 2003 at 7:00 PM in room 101 of the Casa Del Prado in Balboa Park, San Diego. Please come join us, we would love to have you and it is a lot of fun! We have a presentation about tropical fish, a bowl show, a raffle, a gift table, heck ,even donuts! Come meet lots of other folks who are just crazy about tropical fish!
Here is directions coming from the North of San Diego to get some of you started, LOL!
The club meets in Balboa Park (which is same place the San Diego Zoo is located). From The los Angeles area on down,Take either the 405 South to the 5 South,or 5 South if that is what you are closer too. Keep going South to the 805 South, then take the 163 South to Park. Take the Park Exit and turn Left onto Park. Go down a few blocks to Village Place and again turn left. You are now by the Casa Del Prado. Park anywhere you see a parking space, the further down the street you go, the closer to the Prado you get. The Prado is the second big building on the right. (ask anyone, they can point you straight at it). Club meets in room 101, starts at 7:00 PM on Sunday Feb 9th. You can call 619-281-FISH for better directions too! (LOL, highly recommended, I don't want to get you lost! It is pretty much a straight shot down the freeways to get here, shouldn't take you very long. Hope to see you there, and do let me know if you need more help finding it, etc. Might want to pull up Map Quest for a map. Aim for the San Diego Zoo, and you will find Balboa Park! Very easy
Take care!
