            They sometimes have other species. There have been angelfish, goodieds, natives, and livebearers in the past. Also food, filters, supplies etc.
            Unfortunately, I have to work Sunday, so I will not be able to make this. :(

              I would go, but I can't get any more fish right now, lol. But seriously, if you're interested in killies at ALL, don't miss this. :) The best selection of killies you'll find all year.

                This sounds like a really cool auction and I can't it out there.

                I am interested in possibly obtaining some Killies for a project I'm developing.

                Who locally has some for sell?

                Thanks

                  Try to make it to one the meetings, they usually have a mini-auction.
