Catfish Convention 2006

[§tudz]

ok, cheers for the info.

Planercatfish says 2.8" for C. cf. Arcuatus and for C. Arcuatus 2.2"

So that little guy, or should I say big guy, or even gal.... is HUGE! at 3.5"

Hi PC1963

What a happy surprise! Please look for me there, I'd love to meet you! I'm a little old lady, so that should narrow things down a bit.

Hi Barracuda518

I really wish you could come. Who knows, but maybe the next time you can make it.

Hi Betterbettas

Thanks for posting those pictures of your fish. It's not as good as hearing I'd get to meet you in person would have been, but they were a good consolation! I'll be looking for them on AquaBid.

I agree, those C121's, polystictus, and simulatus Im getting from you will really help

Hi Betterbettas

You do have some really handsome fish this time. Those C. weitzmani are sure to go fast; everyone wants some and they are so hard to find.

Another fish you have, that I really like is the C. Wotroi aka Brevirostris. It's a very attractive cory that no one seems to talk about here.

I've seen the C042 aka Corydoras sp. Kristinae once at my lfs, but passed them by because they weren't in good condition. They're lovely.

Hummm........... I hope I'm not too broke when I get back from the convention.

Thank you for the kind words ! Yeah, the C. weitzmani will surely go fast as you rarely see adults as most
sold are 1" juveniles.

The C. Wotroi aka Brevirostris are an outstanding species that most people have never even heard of but that's not to say they aren't an excellent species to work.

The C042 aka Corydoras sp. 'Kristinae' are also a rarely seen specimen that has a gorgeous green flourescent sheen which makes them very attractive as well.

I'm so sad. It's 30 minutes from my house, but I had to go sign up for a horse clinic in PA. I wanted to meet you all. And see all the Catfish. And hear the lectures.

If any of you are going on the field trips, you'll love Amazonia. I've been there a few times before, and it really is an amazing display. Definitely a field trip to take the camera on.

Edit: Actually, I might be able to pop in on Saturday. It depends how long the clinic runs on that day. We shall see.

Hello Annastasia

Hopefully you can make it, right on the nose couldn't just let it pass by.

Hi Annastasia

Oh, I do hope you can make it. There's an auction on Sunday too. Now that should be very interesting!

Edit: I'm looking forward to going on the Smithsonian trip. Since I registered late I was on the waiting list, but lucky for me, someone had to cancel.

Well, the bad news is that I'm flying and they won't let me take any fish on the plane home.
