A very special thanks to Matt (discus-noob) for all his hard work he put into photographing all the fish at our our show.
Don't know what we would do without you Matt!

I always enjoy the opportunity to revisit the show winners. I wish a poster of the winners would be sold eaither be sold by NADA or Matt. I'd buy one.
Gorgeous fish and pictures! Have been looking forward to this and it was well worth the wait !!!
A well deserved recognition to Matt for your hard work, lack of sleep and pumping out some dam great photos.
Congrats to all the show winners and all who showed their Discus. Without you all...Matt would have been bored and possibly taken up drinking.

Congrats to all the winners again, and thank you all for the kind comments on the photos. I am uploading the first batch edited on my good computer right now and hope to get the first few posted up tonight very soon. That laptop I was using is on it's last leg and didn't do as well as I had hoped looking back at them now!
I'm always more than happy to sell a print of ANY of my photos that strike someone's eye! Pretty much any size on any type of surface (aluminum, acrylic, paper, canvas) you would like as well. Also would be willing to partner with NADA in some way to provide a HQ version of a photo for a poster should they want to do this in the future.Quote:

I'm late to the party but I wanted to send a huge thank you to Wes, Rick, John, Matt, Kraig, and everyone involved in NADA, the show, and helping me enter some fish despite not being able to attend myself. Wes was kind enough to pick the fish up from the airport and drive them back to the hotel for me, and Kraig took them home to ship them back here. I wish I could have done more and hopefully I will be able to in the future, but I at least wanted to send some nice discus for everyone to enjoy. NADA is great for our hobby and it's a pleasure to be able to contribute in some way. It looks like everyone had a good time! Congratulations to all the winners and especially those who entered home-bred fish, as that's no small feat to have the time, patience, and dedication to raise out fry to adults. And thank you again to everyone who makes NADA possible, and who made the 2016 show a success!
I love the 2nd place in the Open non on class - that's a mighty fine looking fish ! !
Congratulations to all the winners!

Wow just saw these. Those fish didn't look that good in person. Great job and thanks!
Next show we have to go with lights, something that is overdue.Quote:

I think just some of those LED strips would probably be fine. You can get rolls of about 16.5ft of them on Amazon for like $20, and you can cut them if need be. If it's not enough double it up. Only need a few rolls to go down each rack line I would think. Other option would be look for donations of them. Shouldn't need anything to crazy I wouldn't think. I think lights are a great idea though.
It's too bad that storm came through and knocked out so many of the room lights. I would have loved to have seen what the fish looked like with full room lighting.
This is what we are looking into Matt, it's the power supply's that we need to figure out.Quote:

Congrats to all the winners!!! All very beautiful Discus, must have been a very tough to judge at this event. Question though, what does a breeder win for getting 1st place? 2nd place? etc
