i live there so how couldnt I go?? Is every one of age???(21 or older) or do we have to stay away from the bars?? There is a really good saltwater LFS here we could check that out or the zoo has a new amazon exhibit (havent seen it yet but know its small) but i will not recomend going one lfs here i wont name names because i am trying to be nice,but i am up for doing something just let me know what evryones thoughts are.....
by the way that saltwater lfs has a large shark pond with a black tip a white tip 3 good sized lookdowns a ray and some blue damsels but their show piece IMO is probally the best reef tank i have ever seen its around 700 gallons i think i am not sure but its about 8'x4'x3'

Nice, I'm 23....but don't really care about going to the bars.......LFS are a plus though, but i think will get our fill at the MCA! Bring your pbass and sell them at the auction on sunday rot..

 

[rottbo]

i dont know i am not ready or have enough to go to the auction

 

[Peanut_Power]

If things go as planned, I will have some fishies for the MCA.... !! wanna get some more tankz el pronto though!

 

[rottbo]

i am working on an adoption program for large fish that people can no longer properly house some lfs have already started using me i have gotten 3 new fish this way this week alone by the time the show comes around who knows how many fish i will have by the time the show comes around i have been getting emails too its getting out of hand but oh well maybe i can have a BBQ for the mfk members

 

[Peanut_Power]

Blah!!! Fish is nasty! Steak on the other hand! All for that!! I might bring some of my cats also to trade. Only thing really holding me back is that they have to be properly bagged....hassle. So i might just sell them before the auction....so i don't have to deal wit all that crap.

 

[rottbo]

any big cats??? and i didnt mean bbqed fish i meant real bbq burgers steaks whatever you guys want
