    Default Who's bringing fish to sell?

    Hi Folks,
    I'm getting excited about the show as I suspect you are too.
    Forgive the pun, but a bit of a fishing expedition here. I've reserved a couple hobbyists tanks, thinking I might bring a few fish to sell. I've got a few I'd sell just to cut back some, plus a group of 6 rose red fry, 2.5". Just wondering what kind of interest there might be in folks buying fish at the show. Thanks for any feedback.

    So here's a quick pic of the group of 5 I'm willing to sell. They're over 2" and growing. I'll try to get better pics. I'm not sure about others yet.

    I most certainly want to acquire fish at the show. This will be my first NADA, and I don't know what to expect in terms of how many fish will be available for purchase or auction.

    I'm planning to bring these grow-outs. The parents are a couple of Kenny's Rose Reds. I have a hard time getting good pics, but here's a shot of them.

    They look real good, Steve.
    Hope you bring them - and best of luck selling them - someone will get real nice grow-outs for sure.

    Thanks Paul. Hoping bringing some grow-outs will make the show more fun for someone. I'm still considering bringing a couple other adults to sell, to use the second tank.

    Coming to the show. A Rose Red pair. 99% sure M/F, not confirmed. They've been living in the shadow of another pair.

    I invite other hobbyists/vendors to join in here and advertise if they're bringing fish to sell.
