  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Was just curious if anyone else is going to the OCA event this weekend

I have never been this will be my first year but I am told as far as catfish and cichlids go its pretty impressive. I am going for Saturday and the morning part of sunday.
I'll be there, my buddy tlindsey tlindsey will be there as well as a few others. Also a fellow member Jim notho2000 notho2000 will be speaking. It's a good time lots of fish, equipment, and fish food will be for sale, and there will be quite a few vendors there. Aqueon, Imperial tropical, kens fish, omega one, Swiss tropicals just off the top of my head.

I'll be there, it's a great event every year and the speakers are awesome though Jim (notho2000) isn't a scheduled speaker but he did speak at our November meeting which was awesome!!!!

Binge, maybe you'll stay longer for the auction on Sunday, so many fish to choose from and so few tanks to keep them in.:(
 
I went a little crazy at my local fish club auction start of october so I do not realy have space to buy much at thje moment unless I set up more tanks. maybe a smaller catfish or two like somthing raphael sized.

I actually won my registration in a raffle at my local club auction so I am just giddy to check it out.... maybe I will get lucky on some new lights at the equipment auction saturday cus my lights are crap. It also gives the wife an I a night away so its a win win.

Yes you're right my mistake, Jim isn't speaking.
 
So this event has come and gone, did anyone buy or sell anything?

Did you enjoy the speakers (I know I did!) and what were your opinions on the items available at the auction?

I missed out on the speakers, but browsed around after taking the phone pics and went to see what vendors were selling and managed to pickup 4 tiny Apistogramma Huascar. . Was disappointed because seller did not sort out his fry so 3 have defects.
 
Also picked up bottom feeder wafers from Swiss Tropicals, and a small egg shaped breeding hut for the Apistogramma.
