Went to the auction today

[Patrick]

Had a great time at the auction today.  Met Marty, and bought an Amazon Sword, some Java Fern, Dwarf Vall, and some Trumpet snails.

I plan to sell all my large Festivums at the next auction.

Everything is floating. LOL

This is actually partly my tank as well (I live in the same household as the original poster). What part is floating...? Granted I have minimal experience with plants. If you mean the java moss I have it tied down via anchor or rubber bands depending on where it's at.

I think he was referring to the thumbnail being upside down.

The plants add a nice touch!

I was at the auction, too, and got a bit carried away!  My purchases:  3 Apistogramma Borelli, 4 Kribs, 13 red cardinal tetras (should have been 14, but one died in the bag at the auction), and 5 bronze Cories.  I also got a Java Fern, Anubias Nana, some Hygrophila Polysperma, and an Italian Val.  So much for sticking to my budget!

[African cichlid Keeper]

I got 8 cichlid from STEVENS and then went to 3 fish stores.

Heres what I picked up:

6red head severums

6-brown BN plecos 3"

6- Cryptoheros panamensis

6-albino BN plecos 1/2"

3-tropheus duboisi maswa yellow band F1

3-Pseudotropheus polit

2-29g tanks

1-light/lid

1ib- bag of veggie waffers

and some clear water chemicals that cost me a dollar

I really wanted more of the tropheus but the first couple bags of three were going for over 30 dollars same with the severums.

[RichE]

I stuck to my goal of staying with in $120 dollars

I picked up

A 5 gallon tank
A 10 gallon Tank
Some inserts for a magnum filter
A pond/aquarium filter
A pump for the above filter
2 small Dovi
2 small Venusta

It was either nothing I wanted or nothing that was "priced" right

Since I am in the middle of a re-arrangement of tanks and upgrading, it was best I didn't buy a lot of fish, Plus I was sticking to my goal

Had a blast hanging With Pete and Blair, many of laughs

[Rob S]

I picked up 10 Cherry Red Zebras from Mike Z--thank you again!

From the auction I got a trio of Buffalo Heads and my daughters picked up some dwarf crayfish and won some guppies and apisto's from Fantastic Fin's kids raffle. Good time over-all!

[NorthernAquatic]

You are all a bunch of lucky dogs. 

[Maize-N-Blue-D]

I would have loved to have gone,  but with one in college and the other two in H.S. and a graduation upcoming.  I thought it best that I stay away.  I'm not very good at just window shopping.   I really need to get the wife into this hobby, too many dirty looks lately ! Glad to hear that everyone had a good time.  I am looking forward to going on that fish tour though. I'm not missing that event....Yeah yeah w/ cold beer as well...

You BOUGHT MTS's? (Malyasian Trumpet Snails)

 LOL- Next time let me know, I have a 180g that constantly has them! I'll give you a bunch for free!

[Patrick]

My Angelfish tank is on the main floor of my house, and has a slight algae problem.  I got 15 of them for $2.00.  Hopefully they help out.
