    Default Discus get together in Milpitas CA.

    Hi everyone it's been awhile since our last get together, Si asked me to start up a meeting to see how's everyone is doing. I believe my good buddy Rick can host our meeting at his place. So let me know who's interested. The date and time have not been schedule; I'm thinking weekend will work best for everyone.


    Thanks,
    Hank

    Hello guys,

    I will try to be there too.

    I have some extra formalin 3 that I can share with everyone for free of charge..... ( bought a big 5 gallons container.)

    Pls let me know about the time.....

    May be we can invite KENNY and Mr CLIFF YOUNG to be the main speakers ???

    It could be great to learn from them about artificial-raise fry or Discus husbandry.

    Hi Everyone,

    I have a couple of Discus breeders from BAD(http://badiscus.3.forumer.com) that is interested selling their large glass tanks, but can't bring them to the meeting because of
    the size. I suggested a drive around swap meet to different Discus keepers.

    Thanks,
    Cliff

    Angry Re: Discus get together in Milpitas CA.

    Hey everyone I met another knowledgeable discus breeder in the Bay Area. well he's back into breeding discus again... maybe I can email him and get him to meet you guys. special surprise!!!! Hint he's from Dick Au and Cliff Young generation. Do you think you know this person????

    There's something about this hobby that we can seem to get away from; its either a long or a short break but never permanent.

    Here a question for everyone, who has been in and out of this hobby or just started? what is it about discus that fascinate you the most?

    Hi Hank,
    Dick's and my generation, making us sound older then 29 and someone in the Bay Area, could
    be one of San Jose's biggest Discus breeder Alan Yee, my partner at SF's Discus Study Group. I did talk to Alan a couple of months ago, and he mention some new people that
    he had met.

    Hahahaha, with age comes wisdom, that my friend is something priceless. I'm pretty sure a lot of us would give up a few years to you in return for some of the stuff you know. Yeah, your right... its Alan Yee, why did you go and spoil the fun young man!!! I don't think anyone but you would know. I don't think a lot of people know Alan, so I think it’s a great opportunity to introduce him if I can get him to come out.

    Hi Hank,
    Alan had a Fish Shop(s) in the San Jose Area before the dotcom period. In his fishshop
    he had local bred Discus in the backroom, so he was a local Discus supplier to many LFS's as
    to many hobbyist. He is very well know to some of the older LFS owners and old time Discus
    breeders.
