I'm going. 

Marty's going. 

Blair (Regalblue) I intends on going, but I think he would like to car pool with someone going Fri - Sun.

Alleycat (new guy to the forum from Ohio) indicated he was going in another post.

Nick (nwr2339) indicated a desire a few months ago but don't know if he's making it.

This sounds like an event Dale (Fantastic Fins) would go to, but no idea.

Anyone have small (10 to 30 gallon) acrylic tanks that they are willing to loan out for the trip?

I REALLY want to go. But, that is the last weekend that I have to move things into my new place. So, it might not be happening for me.

Thanks for the offer!!!  :) I'm not gonna have time to go pick it up though.  :( If I need one / two / or three when I'm down there I guess I'll just go buy them.  Marty is gonna have my whole truck full with his crap anyways.

Pick up Blair and come down for Saturday & Sunday.  Split the room, it would be like $50 each.

I went to Indy on Saturday to see what it was like.
Also, I picked up my custom-ordered synodontis caves.
Brantley Berry of Plecocaves.com was very receptive to making 3 different sizes & colors.
I sent him a pic of an Aquabid-advertised cave & he made me what I wanted for very reasonable $.
