For those who might be interested in killis - the British Killifish Association will be holding its next bi-annual southern auction on Sunday 9th September.
The auction will be held at West Molesey Scout Hut, St Peter's Rd, West Molesey, Surrey KT8 2QE.
This is a great opportunity to pick up some stunning fish at a fraction of LFS prices. Most of the fish on offer would not be available in LFSs anyway. Many are rare and bred pure to the locations from which they were collected.
For those who have not been to a fish auction like this before, the format is as follows; Before the auction starts, buyers have a chance to take a good look at all the fish displayed on the auction table. This is also an opportunity to find out more about the fish you fancy by asking others or speaking to the breeder of the fish you like. People are very friendly and keen to offer advice to beginners.
The auction starts at 1pm. Entrance fee is £2 and you do not have to be a member of the BKA.
