All-Aquarium Catfish Convention 2010
Website is now live at http://www.catfish2010.com!
Please note the new location: Fairfax, VA. Bigger, better, cheaper.
Rift Lake folks? We have two speakers on catfishes from the lakes. Ad Konings will do his first ever catfish presentation showing us pictures and video of these guys in their natural habitats. Jeremy Wright revised Lake Tanganyika Synodontis a few years ago and will tell us about those fishes including how to tell them apart.
New World people? Corydoras Master Ian Fuller will be back with updated Cory programs. Possibly best of all, we're bringing in someone from Brazil to tell us about the amazing Rio Xingu Plecos, Lucia Rapp Py-Daniel. And the friendly wood carver, Brian Walsh, will be talking about his favorite Doradid cats.
And of course, there's lots more including a fish show, auction, etc., etc.

Its a shame they moved the convention to VA, but if its bigger and cheaper, then the move was the right decision.
I'll be there, I'll just try to hitch a ride if possible.

I will be there FOR SURE!
This is one of the few conventions that, for one reason or another, I have never been able to attend. BUT THAT CHANGES THIS YEAR! Very excited! :jumpy: <--- hey, she should be a blonde!
Ian is one of my ALL TIME favorite cory experts, and I love hearing him speak. I ALWAYS learn something from him, every time.
Plus, it is my b'day during the convention. What better way for me to spend my b'day than at a fish convention!!?

WOOT !! my favorite convention  For many reasons.... but most of all I get to hang with my two favorite girls Barbie and Julie
They aren't sure if they are selling this year or not??  We have to figure out a way to get Julies fish racks down for her from PA as it wouldn't be the same without her room ! She sold her truck. Beer and Fish !!!
Cool line up Andrew....something different

No worries, Sarah, I'll figure out a way to get the rack there... either borrow my gf's truck, or rent a van. Party on the 9th floor ought to be a hoot!! Great idea Andrew, my kudos to whomever thought that one up!!
Of course, there was always a party in our room, I just wonder why theybother to include beds in it as we never seem to get much sleep!!
