The 2026 Ohio Cichlid Association (OCA) Extravaganza is right around the corner. If you’ve never been to this annual event, I encourage you to give it a shot.

Event
Attending the Bluegrass Bash
If you attend the Bluegrass Bash in Lexington, KY, the end of this month, look for me. If you see me, come up and introduce yourself. What do I look like? Pretty much the same as the photo on my About the author page. I’ll probably be wearing one of my blog t-shirts or you can always ask around for someone to point me out.
If you’re the first to find me and tell me you appreciate the blog, I’ll give you a free t-shirt.
Bluegrass Bash 2026
We’re just over six weeks away from the Bluegrass Bash in Lexington KY, the combination convention of the ACA, the ALA, and IBC.
It is shaping up to be a great event. See my post from March for links to more information.
If you haven’t already secured a room or registered for the event, I encourage you to do so soon.

Vacation and feeding
For the past week and half, I have been out of town on vacation (December 20-30). Did the fish go without food? Yes and no.
