[Kingdom Come Discus]

I can't wait.

I may attend, depending on how things look at that time of the year. I was acutally just in Atlanta at the Hyatt a couple of months ago. The aquarium and Coca-Coal museum were just down the way. I'd be happy to go back for a couple of days. And there are plenty of late night clubs around there!

Ill be in my new place within the next 6 months, giving me just about a year to do some serious growing. My plans for my new setup involve a fully automated 100% daily W/C drip system on ALL of my growout tanks..... hehe

Hi Evelynn......are you bringing any discus for the show?......I have some juv wilds and thinking of getting some domestic solid color strain now perhaps may be ready for the show during that period......how to ship them/procedures from Canada to Atlanta ........perhaps others could chime in.

[Discus-Hans]

plus 1 last I saw them they looked like hell. the first time I went they had nice wilds , last time I went they had sickly looking domestics

Let me make sure that was not how they got them. Those were all selected Discus, to prevent anything could go wrong, I let my help drive them direct after we packed them, on my account, to Atlanta to make sure nothing could go wrong in shipping. In quaranteen the Discus did great, the moment the went in the tank, problems started. Back in Q. all fine, back in the tank, problems. I asked for pictures of the tank, never got them, they ordered about a year later some more, again promised pictures, never got them.

Okay for the show, I indeed hope to see a LOT of entrees from hobbyists, and to let you know, if I come I don't want to go trough the same as the first show, that's for sure lol lol

From what I understand they have always had a big problem with nearly all the fresh water tanks that they want to keep with lower ph. I know they tried recoating the tanks 2-3 times a least. with different epoxies. It would be interesting to find out if they are trying to fight the ph rise and causing giant ph swings ever water change...

Note my info on the ph problems is a few years old now, but basically ever time I go there if the tank is fresh water and isn't over 70% acrylic then the fish tend to be worse for the ware. (Well except the African tank, but they can take the high ph.)

As for the show at Atlanta, I know it will turn out great and I look forward to having an excuse to come visit Atlanta. (And yes I am living in Atlanta right now, but I am moving in May...)

[jawfish]

Hmmm. Tempting...

for me the plane might be a better alternative, since it`s a 20 hour drive, but then again I`ve towed my race car for a few hours longer when I went to Topeka, KS....

I`ll be looking at more details, since I`m definetly considering comming down !!!

Cheers,
