Hello all,
I am leaving on Sat to go to Madeira beach, near Tamps FL. I would like any recommendations on where I need to visit. I would like to drive to Miami to see Wattley's setup. Anywhere else or any other breeders I need to visit? Any great fish stores I need to see. I would like to set aside one day to go "fishing" I am really interested in seeing other peoples setups and possibly picking up some decent fish for the trip home. All input welcome.

Thanks, Jim

Which airline are you flying? Do they allow carrying live fish on the plane? I'm going to Fort Myers and Tempa next week and it will be great to bring home some REAL nice discus!

We are actually driving. I would either have them packed up as if they were going to be shipped and drive them home, or just pay to have them shipped and meet me at home.

Also I will be looking for a good tattoo artist. The guy I usually go to down there is MIA. I can't seem to track him down. If anyone has any suggestions, let me hear 'em.

Besides Wattley discus you can try Brian Morris at Clearwater discus in Clearwater. It's just north of Tampa. He posts his phone numbers in Tropical Fish Hobbyist so it should be ok to post them here (727) 446-2293 and (727) 446-7631.

Brian is usually easier to get a hold of late in the afternoon.
