Tell us what you bought/sold?
What you thought of the auction...?

Another good auction, well done to all the guys and gals :D

It wrapped up at about 2245, I got home at about 0030... Gotta love the drive back to Toowoomba at that hour of the night - bugger all traffic and lots of cops.

Good mix of cichlids and others, the usual assortment of yellows/blues and BNs. Good of Bob to send down some plecs too! I only picked up a pair of Hequi for $25. They're HUGE, as Wilson and Luke will confirm, and have settled in well to their new home.

Hope Charlie wasnt too much of a nuisance for anyone - he certainly kept the kids mesmerised!!

Looking forward to the next auction,
Steve

The auction was good fun, nearly got a bag of convicts but some bastard outbid me, lol. I got a trio of caudopunctatus and some val (the most controlled I have ever been at an auction). Steve's Hequi is massive and I recon he'd give my fronnies a run 4 their money, I didn't know they got that big, we dubbed him the Loch Ness Hequi.

It was good to see some new faces and identify some of the forum users, all in all a great night.

Wilson.

P.S. Steve, nice bird :D

I only got to come for 45mins and 90% of the stuff going through at that time was plants.

I will never bring my girlfriend and her friend again.

Cheers Mitch

Cary,
Not getting divorsed & no funeral to attend...
This is good to hear!!!

Though where did you sleep last night ?
We were getting worried as we haven't seen you on the forum as yet today, 'till now...

We were happy with the Auction.

We weren't selling that much this time, but it still paid for 3/4 of what we bought.

Finally got some Brichardi, two pairs and some juvs. :D

Shame I missed out on the high fin peppered cory's :evil:
She has been reminded several times...

John.
