Hi Everyone!
Yes……Finally! Ponds are open and all my fish survived. Woohoo! It’s May and that means “CAOAC Convention” May 18 to 20 at the Burlington Holiday Inn. It’s not too late to purchase your ticket. Lots of great speakers, lots of specialty classes, vendors, auctions and lots of fish friends coming together.

Big huge thank you to everyone that entered the H&DAS Home Show. You all had beautiful tanks! Special thanks to Frank, Peter and Charlie for judging the tanks and Jessica for taking such beautiful pictures and video.
