To all my Central/Northern California friends (and folks in surrounding areas),

The Sacramento Aquarium Society (SAS) and the San Francisco Aquarium Society (SFAS) are privileged to host @Barbie Fiorentino in March.

On March 6th, Barbie will speak to the SFAS on spawning plecos. On March 7th, she'll speak to the SAS on fishroom/aquarium plumbing and setting up fish tanks. Please come to one or both talks. Attendance is free. Each talk followed by an auction.

SFAS meetings are held at St. Cyprian's Episcopal Church, 2097 Turk Blvd., San Francisco, CA. Doors open at 6:30 PM. The meeting starts at 7:00 PM and runs until the auction is over (sometimes as late as 12am).

Barbie Fiorentino is the second of four big catfish speakers in Central/Northern California in 2020 at the SFAS and SAS:

• January: Charlie Mueller (@CharlieM9) on keeping and breeding whiptails
• March: Barbie Fiorentino (@Barbie) on breeding plecos and tank plumbing
• November: Eric Bodrock (@Eric Bodrock) on breeding corys
• December: Jeremy Basch (@fishboy20) on keeping and breeding woodcats

Don't just catch one talk. You gotta catch 'em all!

Cheers, Eric


UPDATED March 2nd: Sadly, because of Coronavirus concerns and out of an abundance of caution for Barbie's safety and the clubs' memberships, Barbie will not speak here in March. The San Francisco Aquarium Society and Sacramento Aquarium Society asked Barbie to reschedule for 2021. SFAS canceled their meeting altogether. SAS asked Eric Thomas to present on breeding techniques. Barbie will return.

• January: Charlie Mueller (@CharlieM9) on keeping and breeding whiptails
• March: Eric Thomas (@bekateen) on hands-on workshop for breeding and raising plecos and catfishes
• November: Eric Bodrock (@Eric Bodrock) on breeding corys
• December: Jeremy Basch (@fishboy20) on keeping and breeding woodcats
