Thanks to everyone who was so generous with their time to speak of their journey in the wonderful world of discus.

    A big thanks to Cliff for organizing the evert, the pizza, and some freebies! Also a quick thanks to Al for providing samples of the delicious (at least to my discus) FBWs.

    Can't wait till the next one.

    Cliff,

    Yes, meeting some of the masters of discus was certainly an honor for me. After hearing of the BAD forum, I joined immediately and hope that all of us who live around the Bay Area will revived this site and make it a means for our unique community to share our passion for the "King" of tropical fish.

    See you soon.

    David

    Hi cliff, so you do remember me, i have been racking my brain in trying to remember the first time we met, its been too long, way back in the early 80's, maybe you can shed some light, this old brain isnt quite what it use to.I think it was when i first got caught with the discus bug and looking around the S.F. area for OCEAN GREENS, i might have actually been to your place in the city. anyway thanks for organizing the meet i will keep in contact thru B.A.D.

    Hi Rod,
    We usually have one BayAreaDiscus at least once a year , but you may still be able to attend the meeting at Milpitas.

    Just want to let everyone know that I received the Trophy Discus from Tad this afternoon. Thanks Tad for the book and Cliff for putting together the meeting. It was really nice to meet and chat with some of the local discus enthusiasts.
