I can imagine the thrill and excitement of those bros by looking at those shots and I really salute Vincent to take such risk for allowing the hobbyists to handle his breeding stock to promote the hobby.

Yes...Vincent does have a very Big Heart...to allow us to "man_handle" his price brooders... especially the Reds....

I think he nearly freak out when I man_handled his reds... heart stopping moments!

Kudos to Vincent!!!

Dear all

AFC and the AF's Events Team are delighted that many of you enjoyed the "Up Close and Personal with the Dragons" @ Imperial Arowana on Saturday. It was also heartening to see many members bringing their familiies along and we certainly hope that our events will evolve into family-centric events as well, encouraging family bonding, in addition to friendship among the hobbyists.


We all have Barney to thank for this "daring" suggestion and to Vincent for making it possible. It was an experience for hobbyists, which is unprecedented! Bravo Imperial Arowana!!!


Special thanks to the events team, especially, alf88, fish2102, genki, haya23busa and zon, who have once again tirelessly helped with all the planning and logistics and to SoToNgMaN & angelo, our de facto photographers. kam siah.....

A big thank you to Vincent for opening your farm to us. Many thanks to John, D24 and AFC Organising Committees for putting together to make this event a success!

I had a wonderful Saturday morning spend at VIP. A life time experience and fond memory of up & close to the Super Red Arowana and XB. The Super Red has definitely left me a bruised with it strong dart onto my right stomach.

Once again, thank you for making things happened at VIP. Cheers!

Great event @ IP & a lifetime experience for those within the mud ponds. Thanks to Vincent, staff of IP, AFC members & committee alike for making it a memorable event.

Rambo, I got the vids to show how you got those bruises (0:33). Even Kspkcm got his back rear-ended by one (4:31). Stoner, you got use Listerine to wash your mouth after bo? Wahahaha!
A first for me to see hobbyists kissing the arowanas which really is............"Up Close and Personal".

Thumps up to AFC organiser and kudos to vinc for making this event possible and succesful.

Will there be any updates on Q & A issue with Vincent ???

Wat was asked and answers (like the one with Derrick) ?

Too bad unable to make it due to other commitment.

Good job AFC !!!
