Dan Dority: Mucking Around the Top End
Join HAAS KC for a presentation about collecting fish in Australia's Top End. Dan Dority will share insights into Australian fish collecting and the aquatic environments that make the region interesting to fishkeepers. Come spend some time with fellow aquarists and learn something new.
HAAS KC meetings bring local fishkeepers together to share knowledge, talk fish, and learn from other hobbyists. Whether you keep a single aquarium or maintain a whole fish room, you're welcome to join the conversation.
Saturday, November 14, at 1:00 PM. We look forward to seeing you at Powell Community Center. Bowl show details will be announced once confirmed.
