VAHC auction: November 4th

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Hi Folks,

Looks like the Vancouver Aquarium Hobbyist Club is still alive and
kicking...Just got the enclosed note about their annual auction at the
Vancouver Aquarium on November 4th.

Their auction is very different from the GSAS auction... the bulk of the
goods are fish, plants and goods brought in by MEMBERS, and there's very
little manufacturer donated equipment.  This is actually a good thing!  
If past years are an example, expect to see a lot of killifish (some very
good breeders up there) and plants.  The other difference with their
auction is they don't cram it into three hours like we have to, so you can
make it an all-day trip, maybe even visit the aquarium.  Just be careful
crossing the Canada-US border with those plants; it's illegal to import
them without a permit.  Fish should be no problem, though.
