GHAC Auction - May 2009

[fishboyt]

It was great to meet so many yesterday. I hope those that got venison from me enjoy it. All the fish I got it trades are doing great. And the foods and heater will be used starting today.

As far as buying, wow,... got way more than I planned. But, I'm putting my 46gal bowfront back up now that my fishroom/den has wood floors, so the 1) aquasoil 2) 96wt Odyssea light fixture, 3) drift wood, 4) plants, all fit right into my plan. I'll post pics over the next couple of days as I get it all set up.

Oh, and I stayed till the end and still made it home in time to go to dinner with my wife and her tennis friends, i.e., stayed out of the doghouse !

I SAW YOU!

I did, too and talked to him!

I made out like a bandit! I've already planted all my plants (minus some java moss I'll do tomorrow once I get some black thread), have my Eheim air-feeder programmed and loaded with NLS, the ABN's are resting in their new home, and I've got a Mag12 in reserve just incase one of my (or a friend's) other Mag Drives ever goes down.

Our only regrets would be not getting that Illangi painting, and those cool looking red, white, and blue female bettas.

We had a great time, it was good seeing all. That was my first GHAC auction and I was very impressed. I look forward to the next one!

That painting was my favorite!

hey man...your tiger shovelnose has nothing wrong with it medically. the little cottony tuft is actually a piece of net. He got stuck really bad this morning so we just cut the net as close as possible.

haha good to know!

I'll still keep an eye on him... he beat his fins up pretty good in the bag.

I got some really cool Trets. I have one with my new Katoto trophs, and one with my Dubs. I might remove the one with my Dubs though...he really blends in.

had a lot of fun!!

the tiger shovelnose I got was looking pretty beat up by the time i got home... he shoulda been in a bigger bag... and I noticed a little cottony tuft out of one of his fins... so into the hospital tank with him... i'll pima and melafix him for a couple weeks.

sand... if you are just cleaning the top of it , it will get compacted and go south...... i would suggest egg crate under you rocks especially since you are moving the rocks around so much
