Thanks,

Glenn

I kept a pair for myself. I’m not sure I want to give up on them quite yet but I may be convinced to use their tank to get started on Discus. 😉 Let me cogitate on it a few days.

One of my best! I didn't think I'd ever walk right again that!  

 

Oh you mean Doug had some big bruiser size tanks. I thought you meant I had big bruises falling into Doug's Fishroom, LOL I did but his fishroom was nice place to face-plant!

 

Seriously, it was great seeing a few old faces at our swap!

You had some big bruisers. Just like any addiction there is always a risk of falling of the wagon, when you try to cut back on aquariums. 😀

Old / new member here.  Some of you might recall I hosted a HAAS picnic maybe 10 years ago in DeSoto.  I just recently got ‘bit by the bug’ again, and have started to resurrect my fish room.  It will be significantly smaller this go round, downsized to a more manageable 12 tanks, but still respectable at just over 1000 gallons.

Here is how things look now:

300 gallon: Central American cichlid community tank featuring Vieja’s and others, plus an approximately 20 year old L128 blue phantom.

210 gallon: Tanganyikans.  A couple of 7” female Fronts, a mated pair each of marlieri and leleupi, and a trio of Telmatachromis sp. orange scribble (purchased at the fall 2025 auction) of which the 2 largest have also bonded and mated.

135 gallon: a single 8” female festae Red Terror.  She’s a beaut!

135 gallon: South American cichlid community tank featuring sub adult threadfin acaras, keyhole cichlids, some Laetacara araguaiae, plus assorted livebearers and plecos.  I find this tank to be arguably my favorite.

125 gallon: currently empty but am pretty sure it will be mostly Cory’s and plecos.  It will be setup this week.

38 gallon: a mated pair of Coptodon sp. bloody deepwalkers (available as a trade?).  These dwarf African cichlids are on the IUCN red list and are endemic to Lake Bermin in Cameroon, a very small crater lake.  I also have a group of about 2 dozen juveniles (approximately 3/4” to 1-3/4”) available.  These feisty guys are starting to color up.  I would trade these for a group of laser Cory’s in a heartbeat!

Future plans over the next year probably involve changing the 300 to the South American community tank and phasing out the centrals?  I’m thinking about getting a group of 6 or so uaru’s for this?

I’m looking forward to the swap and seeing folks again.  I will be shopping for Cory’s.  Specifically orange and/or gold lazers, possibly others.  Maybe a Tanganyikan?  Uarus?  Dwarf cichlids?  I have a handful of 10 & 20 gallon quarantine tanks set up and ready to go.

Thanks,

Doug Henderson

The bylaws state that annual dues should be paid by March 1st. The easiest way to renew is to send $18 to our PayPal account. The account email is payment@kcfishclub.org. You can pick up your membership card at the meetings. New members should fill out a membership form when they get their cards so we have a way to contact you with club news.

If you need to pay in person please see me at the swap.

Thank you!
