Default A Great Saturday!!!


Today a few of us were there to witness Luis set up a new tank in his office. Members are welcomed to contact Mr.Navarro himself to see if a possible tour of his tanks can be arranged. You guys will be inspired and motivated. At the same time, it is also a great opportunity to ask him more specific questions which would otherwise have been difficult if not impossible during meetings.

For those who live in Houston, ADG is also a great place to see just how beautiful nature aquarium can be. Jeff and Mike also provide valuable insights on ADA products and their usages. Please utilize these resources to make the most of this awesome hobby

All in all, seeing those tanks in person as well as talking to these experts will make you change your perception that a nature aquarium isn't impossible to create. At least that was what I had in mind. Looking at all those tanks I thought it must've taken these people an immense amount of time to set up and maintain. However, once you get into it you will change your mind. It is certainly something everyone can do, with a little dedication and patience!

So, what're you all still waiting for?! Get bit by the green bug already^^!

Aloha Paul, I did just what you said recently. I visited Dan of Gulfcoastdiscus, we have the same interests in discus , angels and now I am going GREEN. I am planning a 72 bowfront right now and already thinking of the same for qceanis 125. I visited ADG while staying with Dan and His awesome family. I was in, lets just say I had no words to other than AWESOME. I met Jeff while I was there and he was working on a 72 bowfront like mine. Someone was trying to tell me something. Saving some money now fro the makeover from Barebottom to the Green side.

I look forward to going back to Houston to Visit my Family.

Thanks to all that I met and will hopefully meet someday.

Mahalo, Ike

Hey there my braddah.

Talk soon,

Hey, Dan, it's ok with the cardinals. If Luis wants them then he can have it I am not in any hurry. And the pictures, I guess Luis will upload them sooner or later. Maybe he needs to do some editing first.

BTW, do you want some cherry shrimp? I was gonna ask you but forgot. I have a tank full of them. Most are still young so the color isn't as sharp. But given your tank's condition they should grow really fast. Just let me know whenever and they are yours for free. No arguing, bro

Dan,

Yes you can make it spell anything. But beaware the some folk will find it to be cool, some will find it to be horribly cheesy.

Let me know if you want a "customized" pattern and I will make it.
