(2) Yellow Labs from Josh
(1) Mbamba from the Oyers
(6) Clown Loaches from Jeff
(1) L129 from Jeff

1M 2F sp. 35 'tomato' from Oyers to round out my group of them and hopefully get the other male(s) to color up. 

I thought about the mbamba but decided to be patient with the largeish group I already have.

3 small unknown syno sp. catfish from Meijer...oops, that wasn't on the tour.

Otherwise I enjoyed looking but did not buy...if I had that pair of 40 breeders still set up, I would have had a bigger dent in my wallet.   :)

There was a lot more that I was looking at.

1M/4F Buccochromis Nototaenia (5-6")
9 Cherry OB Zebras (2")
9 Red Top Afras (3")
12 Ps. Johanni (.75") forgot at Jeff's

I may go grab the 13 C.Moorii that Stan had left also. I have to sort out some tanks first.

Stan's C. moori are really high-quality.  He provided me with a group last fall and they're growing fast and looking great.  They wil be staying with me for a long time.

Nice choice on the Chimba. I'm sure you'll do fine with them. You are the one that said you never kept them right? if not I sound like DA

I came away with a lot of great memories and Idea's.

Since I am redoing/finishing my fish room I don't have many tanks running so i didn't buy anything but once I get the room done and the tanks set up, I might have to make my very own "fishroom tour"

As I saw a lot of fish I would like to raise at all the stops

In case anyone is wondering about the posts that have been removed, I cleaned up the non-relevant posts.  The parties involved will be receiving pm's.

I picked up 6 Albino Eureka peacocks.

Well, the apology to Jenna could have been left up.
With that being said, I have nothing more to say other than have a nice day  :)

Sounds like there was quite a haul of fish from everyone.

So far so good with my new additions, all eating and getting along.
