why?

[mark razmandi]

there wasn't much there...i was too late to see any of the display fish so i cant say anything about those but it just seemed like it was alot smaller than everyone pumped it up to be....

[Rico]

im mad i even wasted my gas, time, and $5 on a bidder card i didnt even use.

I just couldn't miss the football.

But I usually hear decent things about the auction.

[Rico]

the lobby was showing the game.

[myjohnson]

no good deals on equipment?

or was it fish only or something?

I usually check the tables before buying a bid card.

Based on it being FOTOS I would have expected some quality fish at the auction.

Sounds like napping and football may have been the right choice.

I'm sorry it didn't turn out well for those who went. And I'm glad I decided to stay home and study. Looks like I didn't miss out much.

[Rico]

one wet/dry went for $45. not that bad. someone out bid me on a inline pump. they got a good deal for $11. thats about it on equipment. an old oceanic 110g with stand and lights went for $110. the fish stock was not my type. mostly peacocks, julis, and livebearers.
