Re: NFC: AKA UPDATE



I was there too, the native killys were scarce, saw
just a few chyosotus and they sold well, overal there
was just a sprinkling of natives. I talked with a
number of folks about natives, I think there is
growing interest in them, that showed up in the sales.
I didnt see many at all in the fish room.

Maybe next convention we can get someone to do a talk
on native killys? I have no idea where it will be,
this one was just an hours drive from me. Had to go.

One pair of the flagfish came all the way from
Germany!

Overal I thought the convention was excellent, one
disappointing talk on Fp and the set up of the
fishroom I thought sucked, there was a large room
available adjoining the show room that could have been
used. Also could have used some more vendors. Jehmco
was there and saw their pumps in operation, AWESOME!!
I want one.

They also had bs eggs, 15 oz for $49, got one of those
too :-)

An excellent talk on collecting aphyosemions in the
cameroons, much of it applicable to collecting
anywhere.

All in all I enjoyed it. Lots of good fish, fish talk,
seeing friends and acquaintances and making new ones.
