Hi Club: The big auction is almost here! I would like to ask that all fish are bagged (or double bagged) carefully to limit 'leakers' and make sure the little ones make it to their new home. I will be bringing a fish box myself to keep everyone warm. Plants on the other hand can be packed moist in a simple zip lock bag. Labels are always important so please include the species and general care conditions. In light of the controversy surrounding HR669, I would like to ask that you refrain form bringing plants on the Federal Noxious Weeds list (below). The auction is on Saturday (check-in at 10 am, start at noon) and we can always use help with setup, runners, and breakdown! Azolla pinnata R.
