  • Fotas 2013

    The Houston Aquarium Society will host the 2013 FOTAS convention. Now is a good time to talk about who you would like to see talk at the convention, so our friend at HAS will have an idear who to invite. Since I like livebearers in planted tanks, I would like to sugest Ronda Wilson.

      If you like live bearers, you should get Bill Allen. He does the ALA conventions and does presentations for SELAS. He is also in Shreveport. His presentation is excellent if you are in to live bearers.

      Personally, I would love a pleco person.

      What I would really prefer; however, is that FOTAS should take place in the spring so that it does not compete with football season.

          They were talking about having FOTAS in July. We will see. I like Aqutic plants, Livebearers and Killiefish. I would rely like to see a Aquarium APlant person.

            Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
            Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
            Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

                July would be great. No football to compete with.

                      Back in the ’90 when I was editor for the Houston Aquarium Society, I had a page call “The Fish Calendar” and it was the only place I could find all the fishy event in one place. Last year I did the Fish Calendar for my own convenience, but I also posted in a few place including the Houston Fish Box and the Planted tank. I know that my post in the Planted tank generated interest in the FOTAS convention.

                      Now I am asking my Aquarium Club friends to help put together a Fish Calendar for the New Year. Just replay to this email with any events you think should be on the Fish Calendar.

                        The last I heard, FOTAS should be in Sept.
                        I think the TAKO show will be in July. I will post a new calendar when I get the dates.

                          I hope that they do July for FOTAS, if not, you can cut attendance in half because of football....
