    Re: JUne Swap n Sell

    No membership or fees are associated with this. This event is hosted by the LHA and as Raul says, we are open to anyone who has an interest in fresh water aquaria. A surge protector or 2 might not be a bad idea, as all power will be run out to the meet via extension cords. The beauty part of doing it this way, you get to set up a small display tank or 2 to show off the fish in a much better setting than a fish bag. Hopefully, this will be a huge success and we can have many more in the future. I know we will have at least one commercial vendor at the meet to offer up some very nice stuff at unbelievable prices! Don't be bashful, even if you don't have anything to get rid of, chances are you will see something you just can't live without, hehe. See you all Saturday morning!
    P.S. bring them fish hats!

      Re: JUne Swap n Sell

      Greatness! Thanks for answering my questions. I have 2 surge protectors that I'll be bringing. And the guppies are just normal "feeder guppies." I had a room in my house in Florida that was quickly becoming a simple fish room, and since I had the space and worked at a fish store, I wanted to experiment with beginners genetics and such with the guppies. Long story short, I have a lot of them now. Even though starting out I thought I could handle the whole culling thing, I can't bring myself to kill even my plant cuttings, and now that I'm not working at the shop I don't have anywhere to take them. I guess I'll bring them along anyways, wouldn't hurt, right?

      See you tomorrow!

        Hey, thanks for putting this together Scott. I really enjoyed myself. I'm just sorry I couldn't stay longer. I got some plants from Mzungu and they look great!

          I would like to thank everyone who turned out for our little event today. We all got to see some new faces, as well as see some old ones. I don't know about the rest of you but I got some pretty good deals as well as managed to clean out a couple tanks. I will keep you all posted on our next Swap n Sell event, yes, there will be another! I think this was a good learning experience for all of us, and next time we know what to bring. Apparently, once again, plants seemed to do the best, altho Jim's Apisto's didn't seem to do to poorly either.

            Scott,

            I had a great time!  I can hardly wait till the next one.  I'm hoping to have more fish n things for next time.

            I enjoyed meeting everyone that was there.  

            Sorry for those who could not make it,  I think everyone there came home with something.  Mike, from Sunnys, had some incredible stuff and cheap!

                      Thanks for a great time guys. I love my little sunshine peacocks. I truly appreciated Scott's (and his wife's) hospitality. I am looking forward the next event!

                        Just wanted to say thanks to everyone, I had a great time! I expected to just come home with the same stuff I brought...oops! Jim, the apistos are looking great, they seem happy, and you must have treated them well because every time I go up to check on them they rush to see me. Well, seeing as I don't yet have internet at my apartment, now that I'm at work I'm off to go read about them so I can set up that new tank to their liking. Thanks again everyone! Can't wait until the next one!
