I still say you have the legs to pull that dress off very well John. It takes a true man to be comfortable in any sort of clothing doesn't it.

Thanks sweetheart.

Hi, I've never been to a discus show but I surely will make plans for this one. I have been in the hobby for a while and have three tanks of discus but just expanded my housing for them with a brand new 125 gallon! I will be making a gradual transfer of my adults to the 125 this week. Only cardinals in there now. So, that show will be so exciting for me because I will have some vacant tank space. Whoo Hoo!!

I'm out of discus now. But I'll be there just to say hello to some old friends and to make some new ones.
John you may have to shave and get a new dress for this show.

Been into discus for about a year, aquariums in general, 3 1/2 decades. Thinking of attending and maybe entering a fish. I have a 10 month old red snakeskin I think may be worthy next summer.

I am trying to convince my wife this is a worthy vacation. I am also Wondering what the fish qualifications are and how to get them to Austin, I am in Nebraska.

Austin is a great town with lots to see and do, our hotel is in the heart of downtown so quick and easy to get to many attractions and areas, also great shopping for the wife.

Few options on your fish - sounds like you are flying, you may want to call the airline you are ticketed with and ask them about the fish flying as cargo on your ticket. You may also want to ask about a carry on option. It's known that the TSA allows fish to be carried on (http://apps.tsa.dhs.gov/mytsa/cib_re...ch=live%20fish) but better known that this has not been consistently enforced or allowed at most airports. You can also ship the fish (FedEx/UPS/etc) to the hotel and we will hold the package until your arrival or put the fish in show tanks depending on what is requested.

Hope this helps,

Pretty sure we will attend pending finances. Just was not sure how to get the fish there, and know whether it was worthy of the trouble.

Thank you so much for the reply

This is a very exciting event. Lots of great speakers and the great people of NADA put on a great show. You will talk discus, see men in dresses, have a pajama party (myself), learn police tactics, learn about hunting (John), laugh until it hurts, smoke cigars(Liz), learn that people are totally different off the Forums, see some great new products, make new friends, eat great food, see some amazing Discus which are mostly for sale after the show, see fish tanks set up in hotel rooms Tara ( that was different you don't see that everyday) , watch people fall asleep during a speaker presentation( Skip), watch master photographer at work (Matt) spend time with cool people (Nicole), meet some very strange people LOL, hang out with the jersey boys (Rod and Bob) take two hours to get Pizza for everyone because you got lost, I can't wait to see all of you again and meet some new people.......Josie

[John_Nicholson]

Fire-Ted bringing a fish mokes the show even better. As Jim said tal to your airlines and see if there is any additional fees for bringing your fish. if you decide to do it we can talk and I can give you some tips on the best way to handle the fish for shipping.

Moon damned proud to hear that you are going down. we did not get to talk near enough last time.

Josie can't wait to see you again.

[nwehrman]
