Pala Svorada som nepoznal dlho. Keď sa tak stalo, bol už na dôchodku. Bol z Piešťan ako ja, mali sme spoločného známeho, to boli spojenia, vďaka ktorým sme sa kontaktovali. Palo ako mladík choval ryby a zrejme až na dôchodok sa ku svojmu koníčku vrátil. Avšak Palo bol jedinečný svojím zápalom, ktorým sa venoval akvaristike. Bol schopný zo dňa na deň rozhodnúť sa ísť do Duisburgu na veľtrh. Pre svoje zaneprázdnenie som Pala navštívil iba raz a v dobe, kedy už jeho zdravie bolo takpovediac na vlásku. Bolo to v roku 2015. Mal okrem iného krásne veľké akvárium so skalármi Pterophyllum altum a Puntius denisoni. Palo mi okrem iného venoval kopec akvaristického tovaru. Ďakujem Palo, že som ťa poznal.
I didn’t know Palo Svorada for long. When I met him, he was already retired. He was from Piešťany, like me, and we had a mutual acquaintance, which is how we got in touch. As a young man, Palo kept fish, and it seems he returned to his hobby after retirement. However, Palo was unique in his passion for aquaristics. He could decide on a whim to go to the fair in Duisburg. Due to my busy schedule, I only visited Palo once, at a time when his health was hanging by a thread. It was in 2015. Among other things, he had a beautiful large aquarium with Pterophyllum altum and Puntius denisoni. Palo also gave me a lot of aquarium supplies. Thank you, Palo, for knowing you.
