Board member Alex Scharnberg will be presenting a travelogue of his recent trip to West Africa, covering fish, habitat, culture, and the countryside of Cameroon! A few club members were lucky enough to take home some of his wild caught Kribensis localities at the March meeting.

🥪 Please bring your own lunch 🥪

There will be an AUCTION of fish, shrimp, and plants! We will be meeting in a retail establishment, so please make sure auction items are securely packed and bags and containers are water tight. Please do not bring dry goods for the auction this month. The board is discussing supply sales at future meetings when the venue allows, but remember you can sell supplies on the Facebook, Discord, and Band anytime.

Most monthly meetings include an auction.

🦐 Paid members get an 80%-20% split on items they bring while it is 60%-40% for non-member sellers.

🐠 Be sure to label your items accurately and legibly and get them checked in at the beginning of the meeting.

🌿 Please only bring bags of water for the animals, plants travel better damp not wet. Make sure your bags or containers are secure!

🎈🎈 No dry goods at the April meeting since we are meeting at a retail store. 🎈🎈
