anyone in iowa, nebraska, kansas, missouri?

[laura65536]

I don't think I have ever seen a meet for out in this area, wondering if anyone would be interested in setting one up? I'd love to meet fellow mfkers and it'd be great to have some vendors that I know around here be able to display their fish....

[DB junkie]

Yup.....I'm a native here in this stupid corn field.

Meets? I think there's only like 4 here on MFK from Iowa. But if there was a meet somewhere I would probobly go.......It would have to be more promising than traveling to the far corners of this state to visit fish shops that are SUPPOSED to be worth visiting.

[Mikedr]

I'm next to the iowa missouri borders. I would probably be interested.

[laura65536]

if we could just get a dozen people or so together we could find a centrally located place and do this....so come on people there has to be more of you in the sticks than this....

[evilxyardxgnome]

Theres a MN meet its kinda close to NE?

[laura65536]

I'm barely in NE, MN is pretty far from here, I'm just about on the border of all 4 states...if it wasn't such a drive I'd love to be there, but it'd be one heck of a drive...

[evilxyardxgnome]

Ah I see.

[X24]

This summer i'll be on that until then....nope, but http://topicaltropicalfishforum.forumup.org/ has got about 15 nebraska fishkeepers there although not many of them get too much in the range of monster fish, they still have meets every now and then.

Any good recommendations for Fish Stores around here?

I only really know about Beldts.

[Bud8Fan]

I'm not far from Omaha.

[LextacySC]

Im new to MFK, but have been a long time lurker. The only meets that I know of in Omaha are from the Omaha Marine Society. I think they are member only.

[Bud8Fan]

I just checked out their website and it looks like they are Salt only guys. Too bad there wasn't a Freshwater group like that around here.

Try "Malawi Aquatics" for cichlids and sometimes mini-monsters.

I go there a lot.

[ziggy2]

[frenzybob3]

Quad City Region is Iowa here

[t Hizzle]

[X24]

topicaltropicalfishforum.forumup.org has occasional swap meets at paradise cove pets, and now paradise cove pets and charlies angels are right next to each other in omaha, but thats about the only freshwater meet i know of.

[LextacySC]

Anyone from Omaha, or close, want to do a group buy from one of the MFK vendors? I've been looking for a Delhezi, for a while now with no luck. I am not picky, shoot me a pm if you guys find one and want to save on shipping.

[frenzybob3]

Im willing to drive to omaha for meetings and all that so count me in
