WGC 2003
The next WGC will be held by Clube dos
Criadores de Guppy do Brazil between 20th to 23 Th November. We
contracted with a wonderful place called Orchid Garden, near Jose Menino Beach. This zoobotanical garden
was built in 1945, with an area of 22,240 m2 that shows several kinds of
species from the “ Mata Atlantica”. Moreover, there are many birds, which come
and go freely inside the park. A lake is situated in the central area, which
receives migratory visits of aquatic
birds. You can also view hundreds of species of Brazilian orchids and
ornamental plants.
The show place will
have 500 tanks, natural lighting in a large area, where we will schedule guppy
lectures. The WGC will also be
supported by sponsors from the top ornamental fish industries and pet
shops. Video recordings are planned for
all show activities. You can expect a
great and entertaining weekend!
