Yes the September 21st auction is our (MCA) auction.

Donations can be given to Marty. But I have been handling donations this year.

Okay. I will be gone on a fly fishing trip that weekend so can not attend the auction. But if it's okay I would like to donate something to auction/give away. I have a small tank (5.5g) beta size tank I was building a 3d background for just to sell on CL, it's got a 5-15 whisper fileter and such as well. Even though it's small the 3d Background I did is cool, it's a miniature version of my cool "cave 55g tank" in my peacock tank only on a small scale. It'd be cool as hell for someone's kid with a beta or goldfish etc etc.

Anyway MCA has helped me so much over the past year I'd like to at least try to give at least a tad back, so if you guys could us this I'll donate it for the auction. Chris and Rich are coming here Thursday so even though I wont be here for the auction I could give it to them to bring with them if that's okay? Like I said not a cichlid tank, but someone might really like it for their kid or something.

No biggie Chris. I've got so many deals and friendships here on MCA it'd take 10 times more than this to start to repay you guys.

Just finished it up so I'll give it to Chris & Rich tomorrow so they can bring it to the auction. Came out pretty neat, will make a cool little beta or shellie tank I think.

WOW! What an overachiever, I can't compete with that. Great job on it bud. I'll be putting in for that raffle.
I have about 18,000 rounds of .223 I'm  looking to get rid of, 100 rd bags. 1-4 bags $40 ea, 5-9 bags $38 ea, 10 or more bags $35 ea. I can't put this in the for sale section, its not fish related. No shipping.
