The annual Aquatic Gardeners Association's 2008 convention is this upcoming weekend. This is something I have wanted to go to for many years now, but havent been able to. Can we say club roadtrip for 09'.

While you are on there site, check out the A.G.A. contest entries. The tanks are all amazing, both small and large.

This site has provided me with all of my inspiration I needed to get the tanks done that I have.

those are the kind of events I think I'd almost rather look at from afar than go to. I get in enough of a "must plant a new tank" frenzy when I look at the stuff that shows up at those events. I'd break the bank if I went to the actual event.
