I know

I need to get down there and chat with Gary, but school work is preventing me from going

And I need to get together a list o'things I want to get rid of at the auction!

J. transcriptus 'gombi' and J. marlieri....both tanks have very top quality fish, and are currently 2 for 1.

I saw ornatus there as well i think.. The ornatus were 9.99 (I think)

Toirtis · 11-03-2004, 12:00 PM

Going to be at least 4-6 Synodontis petricola at the auction, I found out last night, plus some dalmation sailfin mollies, several tanks, and 2-3 stands. I am trying to pry out of each vendor some idea of what they will be bringing.

Menagerie · 11-03-2004, 12:38 PM

I am bringing fake plants, log decorations (sm, med and large) and a lighting fixture with light that was on our 80 [acronym:a0c6c8b0ff="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:a0c6c8b0ff] tank.

Will the format be two auctioneers? That moved nice and quick at the last auction.

Toirtis · 11-03-2004, 03:47 PM

I hope it will be two of us...it will likely all depend on whether Dave wants to join me on stage, or just relax...of the two other chaps that used to do a lot of the auctioneering, one moved to BC, and the other hasn't been to a CAS function in months.

I can auction stuff! Just as long as no one has questions for me
