I could thank the guy from San Diego at the MACNA 2016 booth across the aisle for sharing his left over beer the last half hour of the show though. Not sure I've ever had a grapefruit beer before, Ballast Point from San Diego. It was actually pretty good stuff. Of course I probably also needed a couple at that point.

    Yes a thank you to Discus Hans for making this all possible. He helped NADA secure the booth and he donated 10 great discus so NADA could do a fundraising raffle.

    Hi Skip,

    I know you probably meant that comment as a joke, but if you knew how hard Keith worked up to, and during the 3 day show, you probably wouldn't have made such a flippant remark.

    I'd like to nominate Keith for the Simply MVP AWARD for all his hard work in promoting Discus keeping and NADA at the Aquatic Show in Chicago.

    While all Keith's work is greatly appreciated, NADA and Simply are two different entities. Al is just kind enough to give us our (NADA) own little sub section in his forum. Now, if NADA had an MVP award of the month, Keith would win hands down this month no doubt about it!

    I was excited to see a NADA booth at the expo. Wasn't expecting it at all. It was a shame that I couldn't enter the raffle as I had no tank to hold new fish if I won LOL.
