There were some fish at the auction I have never seen before so it was a great experience for me. Good thing you didn't attend....you may have outbid me!!!

The biggest selection were African cichlids followed by angelfish, plecos and cories. Someone tried to flood the market with adult red jewel cichlids (they were nice). There was considerable used equipment and my garage now has more space (I sold 24 items). There were a few big tiger shovelnose and two very small red tail cats that require tanks exceeding 300 gallons. There were also many fancy guppies and a few goldfish. A good selection of wood was also sold. I loaded up on plants and some scavenger fish, including a species of oto that I have not seen before (there are 18 species known).

I will attend again.

I was there only for a short time but bought a few good items! I got a auto feeder for when we are out of town, filter media, and a 7.5lb co2 tank set-up.

I found the auction beneficial - sold some aquarium ornaments, a few plants and some hard goods that I do not use.

My purchases included five different species of plants, a L144 pleco, some albino drawf cories and two unusual species of otos.

It was a very worthwhile event and there were many good deals.

Who else attended?
