I am excited, :woot:I am going to a meeting of the Erie Aquarium Society on 18 September and Discus Hans is the guest speaker!! It will be very cool to meet the man from whom I bought my Discus. :thm:He will be bringing some of the new strain "Tefe" with him for the auction! Maybe I can add to my 110 gal tank as I only got 7 originally and do have room for more.
Anybody else wanna go?!

His "Stendker Tefe's" are nice looking fish, Alenquer x Red Santarems.
He put a bunch of pics up over on the Midwest Cichlid forum

Just got an email from the Erie Aquarium Society. You do not have to be a member to attend or to participate in the auction afterward.
