before the stairs for those who needs it.

 

November meeting is Friday 11/7 7:00 PM
​​

Presentation:  Fish Diseases (and possible remedy)

Presenter: Vicky Aber

​

Those long-time members of CAS may remember Vicky Aber, a prominent contributor to the club in the past.  After a long sabbatical, we managed to bring her back to give us a brief talk on fish diseases and possible remedies to bring your fish back to health

​

​

- Growth Contest Fish (Discus) -

​

Those who signed up for the growth contest back in May may bring their monster Discus back to compete with others to see who's got the biggest.  

Remember, the winner gets CASH instead of auction bucks, and obvious bragging rights!

​​​​

      The second half of our regular meeting will feature a mini-auction.

      Sellers are limited to 5 lots of any single species or color/morph.

      Sellers will split auction proceeds 50-50 with the Club.
