Just wondering if its worth going to or if id be better off waiting for the next one in. Madison heights. The auction next week. Seems to be fresh water in general not based around cichlids?

MCAS auction is everything aquatic. Cichlids, live bears,catfish,eeglayers(tetra's etc.)plants, dry goods,crayfish, snails,live foods, a raffle and a Buy it now Table.
The last auction in Dec. had over 1,100 items that were auction off.

And I think the December one even went unti like 7:30PM to get through all the items?  I left around 4 or 4:30 and there were several hundred items remaining.

Very much worth going.  The GDAS auction in March will have maybe half the items you'll see at the MCAS auction.   If the one last October was any indication.  Not that it's bad, just not as big or as much selection.  But you will get a mix of different items at each auction.

I'd recommend MCAS auction over GDAS anyday.  If you're going to skip an auction...  GDAS is the one to miss, IMO.

Well looks like everyone has the same view on going to the MCAS.  Which is great it is closer to where I live

Make sure you rent it for a few days.  So it can double as a hearse after your wife sees how many tanks you bought.  :p
