West Coast Palooza III closed this afternoon, great supportive crowd, vendors selling Chinese, Japanese and Thai fishes. Big auction from breeders donations and vendors support. Special thank you to all local help Matt Dremerer, Mark Rausa, Marci Rausa, Gage Harford, Katelyn (jumpergrl92), Bryan Jefferson,Amber Rose- Soares and Martin Lim. Also special thanks Di and Kevin from Genki Koi our wonderful host.
Show had 76 entries. Our guess speaker Jeff Thompson sold TVR, got Best in Show, and donated excellent TVR to the auction.
Lots of extremely rare fish for sale: jinkin, tosakin, telescope orandas, top view ranchu and fist sized ryukin and yuan bao. Prices were very reasonable! International Aquarium and Kin Koi and Goldfish brought hundreds of fish for sale.
The event was great fun!
I was at this event 4 years ago and didn't realize how special it was, now that it's been 4 years with the last 2020 event cancelled. :(
