I've just found out that there's going to be a fish auction in my area on Sunday. I'm hoping to go, but I've never been to an auction before and had a few questions...
(1) Are fish at auctions generally from breeders or just from people who are trying to get rid of a few extra fish?
(2) I know (obviously) prices will vary, but in general, are they lower/comparable/higher than most lfs's?
(3) Because these fish are coming from private homes/breeders (as opposed to lfs's) do they need to be quarantined as if they were any other fish?
Thanks in advance! I'm really looking forward to going...even if I don't buy anything, it should be an experience!
