Default Auction trades

People typically bring in donations of Fish, coral, plants equipment and miscellaneous items for auction. Everyone looks over all the items during the review time. Mark down the number of the items you wish to bid on and when the item comes up let the good times roll.. There will be a lot of stuff there. ..

There is no trading of fish , all livestock is auctioned off . There is two events during the year where you can split the money that your fish are sold at the auction , it's a 50/50 ie ; your fish goes for 20$ at auction , you get 10$ the club gets 10$<*\\\><~~~

Did you wind up getting the Beta smaragdina at the last mtg, or were they claimed by another? I'll be bagging some for tonight, so if you'd like I can bag some for you "special". lol I'll try to find you a pair, but I'm sure you know, once the net is in the water, they all look the same.

Why wouldn't you trade fish with fellow members ?. I've brought plenty of frags in the past for individuals. I don't see why that would be a problem.
