WHAT'S ON IN JUNE?
MEMBERS TALK
George Wright will be giving a talk on Steatocranus casuarius - Lionheads. A very interesting species to observe and breed, must see for all fish keepers.
MINI AUCTION
WHAT WILL BE FOR SALE?
We are expecting 70+ lots to go up for sale. We aren't able to advise what fish and goods will be available for sale as club members enter their lots on the night just before the auction starts.
An auction will typically have lots of the following for sale (but there is no guarantee these will be for sale on the night):
* African Cichlids - a variety of species from Lake Malawi, Lake Tanganyika, Lake Victoria and also Rift Lakes.
* American Cichlids - a variety of species from large Central Americans to the smaller dwarf American cichlids
* Catfish and plecos - a variety of all different types of catfish, typically including bristlenose and L numbers
* Dry goods - breeding caves, driftwood, aquascaping rocks, filters, etc. Note only brand new electrical items are sold at the auction.
BIDDING RULES
If you want to bid on a fish, please do so early to save any disappointment when you miss out for bidding too late.? All bids are to be made in whole dollar units.
Bids will be in minimum amounts of
$1 increments from $1 to $20.
