Back From The Auction

[Mikaila31]

I spent like 8 hours at a fish auction today. It was so much fun. Tons and tons of stuff and lots of people. I only went there to sell some stuff and buy one type of fish. Of course you can never ever stick to plan. The fish where all laid out on tables in their bags, most spent around 8 hours there constantly being picked up by people. Yet they all looked so nice and mine are already starting to settle in. Anyway heres what I came home with.

6 B. brigittae-$14 the only fish I really went there to get.

(2 trios) Black Bar Endlers- $5

2 clown killies- $7

8-9 German Blue Ram Fry(about 1/3 inch long)-$7 I didn't really need that many. but they are cute and cheap.

Oh. and this is Monty. He had my whole 15gal quarantine tank to himself for a couple months. But I caged him up as soon as I started introducing the new fish, since they look like tasty treats to him. Alas I will have to move him back to his own tank tomorrow.

It was in the Twin Cities. Held by the Minnesota Aquarium Society. There where a lot of chiclids, I don't care for most chiclids. Except there where some drop dead gourgous discus.

The rams are really cute. I just wanted a pair, but these guys where so cute that I decided I would raise them myself. I will let them pair off once I get a nice pair I will sell the rest.

I'm kinda surprised I think I made more money selling things than I spent......... That hasn't happened before .
