their is a guy called brian who attends most fish shows and sells loads of tanks which are the best in the country for showing fish in.

Well worth attending some show if u get a chance, I get to a few as well as i get around.

There are no shows anywhere near Norfolk. I'm kinda disapointed because I can't take any fish to a show and we also can't have a look at any shows. I'd love to go to a fish show and see the beautiful fishes. But sadly the closest is about a 3 to 4 hour drive away

well if i can then it worth trying just to meet some of the people how goto these shows....

Wish i knew about that fish show in nottingham sooner, i got no chance of getting time of work at such short notice, epesically since i got time off in like a couple of weeks already. Lemme know what its like if you go anyone.

it's usualy busy in the morning and afternoon, but from 12-3 it's usually quite due to judging of the fish.

Their may be a auction but i don't know.

As for the people i have no idea never been to Nott's fish show, that 4 hours drive from here
But i'm sure that there be loads of people milling around and there are always something going on.

If their is no auction some time people bring their home breed fish to sell, and home breed is not guppies, but rare cichlids, loaches, barbs, corys and all sorts I've seen over the years.

But dont be shy just have a good look around.

hey, reading this post made me think, the closest fish shows/clubs are miles away, why do we start our own, pick a date,time and place everyone (or most people) can attend and meet there, have discusions about keeping fish, show your favourite fish, have weekly photo competitions?
what you all think, i would be intrested

 

[helterskelter]

the problem is a national club is difficualt to run and have places for every one to meet.

But I'll be willing to do something in the south area.

Or we could have a meeting at the festival of fish keeping which is sadily in the south (good for me) held in OCT at heyling island
