Did Rich just erroneously assume that Jeff said he gave him tiny wood?  :o

I sent you pictures of said wood and you said that you wanted those pieces. I can toss you a few more piece's that I have that are a little bigger that I was going to use in my tank if it would make it better. I dont want to be know as the guy who mislead someone, even thought I was up frt and showed you first. You are a great guy and I dont want to be on your bad side.

LOL.  Rich, you took my comments too literal.  The others seem to have gotten my smarta**ness.  BTW I want to go on record that I did not address the comment about how you where concerned about being misleading on the size of your wood.   ;D   :o

I seem to have stumbled into the Jr. high locker room... guess it's time to find another thread for a bit.

In the meantime...are there likely to be any dwarf catfish, especially any of the Asian or SA varieties, at the next MCA auction?  E.g. Asian moth cat or similar size.  Mostly  bristlenose and cories at this past MCAS one.

Plecos, Corys, and Synodontis are the typical catfish.

I've never seen those at an auction, that I recall. Your best bet would be to talk to someone like Pete Durkin or Dale @ Fantastic Fins and see if they can get them. Especially if you want enough to try and spawn them. That's what I would do.

I picked up two of the moth cats from Fins and hope to get another 4+ once they restock.  Just wondered if any similar ones went to auction.  Guess not usually.

Wetspot on AquaBid usually has them available but it looks like they are also out of stock right now and they are a reliable seller. They are in Portland, Oregon so doing a group order to help spread out shipping costs would be your best bet.

Thanks for the tip on WetSpot.  I've heard good things about them before.  Shipping is the kicker, though.  I will see if Fins gets more in and if not, look into a group buy or something from them perhaps.
