No fair! Your aquarium clubs are so much better than ours! :p . I wish you'd take those sales about 200 miles inland? LOL! Boy, if I wasn't scared driving 80 to SF at night!

If you come to the San Jose meeting, which is on a Saturday night, you can leave Sacramento in the afternoon, and take your time to drive to San Jose. The meetings really do start on time, and Dick Au will probably be done by 8pm or 815pm. The auction will start at 830pm.

If you arrive at the meeting early enough, and want to purchase some fish from me directly, before I check them in for the auction, then pm me. You will be back home in Sacramento before midnight! Also, 80 to 680 ain't so bad at night. Maybe you can find a friend or SO to keep you company during the drive to San Jose.

tpl*co,
Discus availablity may be closer then you think. Have you checked
out Phil's place in Antioch, Fintastic? He's breeds and sells his own
Discus. His prices are very reasonable since he doesn't have to import Discus
to sell, get the Discus where the buck starts.

This looks like a good weekend for Discus the San Francisco Aquarium Society
has many Discus breeders and also the Back to Nature man will probably be
there too(Dick Au) this Friday.
For Saturday's Discus there is the SVAS during the evening, the speaker
is also Dick Au the title is Ultimate Discus. As I understand there will be
many Discus for sale from some of the local breeders.

Just to be clear. Dick Au is NOT the speaker at the San Francisco Meeting on Friday. Jim Forshey is the speaker.

Dick Au will be the speaker at the Silicon Valley meeting in San Jose on Saturday, and the title is Ultimate Discus. I'll be taking all my fish for sale to the Saturday meeting.

I'm tempted! I'm just scared to drive there at night though. What about picture cell phones and bidding by proxy ;)

Hey, i was about to go to the event today with David(Crazy4Discus) but it was a bit late.

Did anyone here went to the event?
If so, What type of Discus did they have there? and how much did they go for?
I went to 1 of these Discus auction way back in 2003...Pretty fun place...Just wondering what strains of Discus they had this time...

I will Definitely be there next Month.
