Well I was just wondering if anyone would like to come up here for the NEDA meeting say late August or in September? I would love to have everyone come to my place.

Just wondering....:confused:

I know car pools will most likely have to be arranged on your end, for my end I will try to find out if I can get a group rate at a comfortable hotel around the scenic part of downtown so you can take in some of Canada's capital city while you are here 8-)

30 Tanks!! I hope you enjoy water changes! Are you on a water meter? They are talking about raising the water rates here in Calgary, and I have noticed a jump in our water consumption ever since I started up Discus keeping again :/. Must be the RO unit running for the breeding system.
