aqc Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hi Andrew Just tonight we had Anton speak up here at QCG. He gave two great presentations (West African Fishes and Bettas) but has a library of talks to tailor your needs. It was great to hear about different fish than to the usual Rift Lakes or Americans. I mentioned that he was scheduled to speak with you down there, but he has yet to be informed of the details (it could be due to happen this weekend or after he visits Melbourne?). Anyhow showing some QLDer hospitality, having been on safari with him and meeting you last year, I said that I would give you a heads up. I will e-troduce you to him on Fishbook so that you can touch base. Cheers Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
