Matt: You are in luck! There is a mini-auction (our ~4th!) in support of HAP/BAP at the end of the January meeting already scheduled (As far as I know). In addition there is an active discussion about including fish at the Feb plant auction (not just BAP but no hardware). After a normal meeting in March (with HAP/BAP auction) there will be a Annual Big Auction for fish/plants/hardware/spacewasters2000. In addition I have a good number of Angels (even the fry made it) and Goodeidae ready for a good home. Sadly my female Endler's at home became Angel snacks. -Paul *************************** Alumni 2005 University Of Washington *************************** On Mon, 18 Dec 2006, matt kaufman wrote: > Hey, how about a couple monthly auctions at the regular GSAS meetings since > so many have lost fish, rather than waiting till march or april or whenever > it is.
