    HUGE piece of holy rock Woo Hoo!
    4 bags of plants

    2 bags of angels
    Some convicts for tank cycling
    A bag of Malawi cynotalapia yellow dorsal

    Well, I got me some Spirulina Flake...didn't see that on your list....smiles.....and some Compressiceps, again, didn't see that on your list....smiles....and a bunch of other cool little goodies......

    Seriously.....I always enjoy these events, Charles and Dave make it seem like watching Jay Leno or something, it's a blast.....and meeting all the "fish folk" is always fun......it's a good time everytiime.....except when someone out bids you..... :P

            I feel bad for Spot.. she had bidded on it.  I might have to bring her the Nanochromis parilus (Congo dwarf cichlids) -- I know she likes non-rift lake cichlids from Africa :)  but the decorus I dont want to give up.

                  Jesper, You are a GOOD man. I am sure Spot walked away happy with the breeding pair you didn't bid on that she got

                      Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
                      Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

                        I got micro worms, walter worms, almond leaves, and a bag of Dave's fake plants. I wanted the Polits but they looked like a reverse trio and I already have too many males.

                            Sold more than I bought so worked out well.  Also was great to visit with HFB members as well.
