I got a sore throat from yelling. lol The P.A. system was down for a few hours.  I also picked up some electric blue rams and some orange laser cories.  Kept away from the comps. and calvus this time.  Got a hook up on a breeding pair.

I didn't have time to really pay attention to things until later in the auction, but kind of got a roll towards the end and brought home a handful of items:
- F1 S. fryeri
- B. nototaenia
- Ps. saulosi
- A. chrystii male
- L. trewavasae pair
"All men are equal before fish."
- Herbert Hoover
Planted 100 Gallon Tank
550 Gallon Hap Tank

My first auction in a few years.   That's a nice hall, centrally located to.

Picked up some.  E. Blues, E. Yellows, red to kimpuma, ruby green haps, red express.

Great auction, very well run....so thanks to all the people who put it together.

I got some cory cats and some albino plecos. Cudos to whoever brought in the PA system. Couldn't hear anything prior. Had a good day
I still don't know what I'm going to do when I grow up.

We came home with a few things.

From the auction: yellow 1/2 black calvus and julidochromis ornatus
And prearranged: lamprologus brevis sunspot

It was nice to see such a great turn out even with the slow start we had with the PA issues.

Good times. Glad that once again when faced with an issue, (P.A. system) they were able to come up with a workaround. Great job!
 As usual spent more than what i planned but walked out with some good looking fish. White tail Acei, breeding group of S.P. 44's, a Gold pearlscale angel with massive finnage, a group of young platinum angels and a group of black angels. Some Cyrtocara moori, a trio of Ahli. Three bags of duckweed for the pond and Koi, which also came with a bonus Endler inside one of the bags. Bonus.
~560 Gallons and Growing again~

Did you get the cyanosticus in the first hour? I did not see any gobies. Would have bid hard against you if I had seen them ;)

Awesome time, Nick and I had fun. We picked up some new Victorians. I love the color in the Vics and it is good to see so many in the hobby. Good job MCA and everyone that had a hand in it.
