I have just wandered back into the world of cichlids after an 8 yr 
hiatus... this time I'm wandering into dwarfs, and specifically, 
apistos. :-)  

I belonged to the ACA 10 yrs ago, and enjoyed some conventions - will 
probably join again.  I used to keep the medium/big cichlids like 
Dempseys, Firemouths, etc. and had all those huge tanks around the house 
- they were hard to move when we used to move every couple of years! So, 
I slowly trickled away from the hobby.  I still have a 13 yr old Tilapia 
mariae in a 55 gallon by himself - he's a great buddy. However, I've 
gotten into bettas and guppies over the last few years, and many smaller 
tanks work better for me now overall, including a 10 gal tank at work. 
:-)    But dwarf cichlids I'm finding fascinating, and the cichlid bug 
has hit me again!

So because I've been away from cichlids for awhile, I'm a little 
ignorant on how some of the clubs work. I didn't know about the Ohio 
group's show - was it the weekend before T-giving? Don't tell me it was 
over T-giving.... I drove from MA to Ohio this past week in nasty snow 
storms (and drove back through them to get home, too!), and I'll be 
depressed if I missed a show while I was in Ohio!

Does anybody know if the Ohio club accept membership from non-Ohioans 
(or "Ohio ex-pats")?
