Monthly Auction

We have an auction at every general meeting. This gives everyone a chance to buy supplies and fish or to see something they have on hand. Everyone can bid on an item as many times as they want. The person who offers the highest price then pays the treasurer.

If you wish to sell something at the auction, you collect the proceeds from the treasurer; 25% (members) 30% (non-members) of the amount is kept for the benefit of the society. Be sure to wrap the fish securely and in bags with plenty of air. Special preprinted labels and forms should be obtained from the Treasurer prior to the auction. Mark all information about the fish on the outside and be careful of temperature changes. Any and all items associated with the aquarium hobby can be entered. All mechanical devices must be labeled if they have any defects.

Items raffled might be aquarium pumps, heaters, filters, plants, fish, live food cultures, aquariums, books, etc. Donations are always welcome. If you have an item that you do not wish to get money for, it will be stated by the auctioneer that it is a donation to the society.
