shadoh Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Due to many factors, it has been decided that this years Betta Australis show will NOT be an IBC show, but scaled down to a club show. 2013 will be the year of the IBC show. This years show will still be open to entries from around the country and all fish will be judged according to IBC rules by local judges. **NO IBC POINTS WILL BE AWARDED TO ENTRANTS** Please watch this space for further information as it comes to hand. I will endeavour to present more details here about prizes etc once they have been announced by the Betta Australis show chair.

melbournebetta Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I was just thinking about this today - thanks for the update, the Melbourne gang are all keen to see an Aussie based show (if nothing else) Keep us posted... and dammit, I'm still spawning the kids like mad to get a shiny fush for the September show. Cheers, Ness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Thanks Ness, It was your post about spawning for the IBC show that prompted me to make the premature announcement. I've been holding off until I had all info regarding prizes etc. Great to hear we have the support of the Melbourne crew no matter the show format.

shadoh Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Don't worry Ness, after hearing some of you southerners and Les coming over from WA, I'm not sure what I'm more excited about - the show, or meeting some of the wonderful people I have been interacting online with for the past couple of years! (oh, and the chance to swap/sell some sparkly fishies!!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yanagi Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 I might be interested, mainly for the social side of it and a mini holiday. I might grab a hold of a few fish just to show for fun. When is this being held? Don't need a specific date really, just a month.. And basically all of Les' questions. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
