Thank you! Affordable enough to visit for me. I hope nothing will prevent me from doing it.

Hi All,

Not long now until the convention, I'm planning on bringing some fish to include in the auction, there will be no reserves as I need to move some fish on to free up some space, just happy for them to go to a good home. Usual CSG auction rules will apply, I may have a few spare poly boxes if needed to transport the fish home.

I need to separate and count up some of the fish to be certain of the group sizes but the below will give an idea of what I will be bringing.

Thanks!

- - 3 tank raised adults believed to be 2 male 1 female. One refused to leave a cave when I was catching them, it looks to be a female from what little I could see!
- - 2 adult wild caught fish, I believe one male, one female.
- - sub adult ~5 inch TL, one fish, tank raised F1.
- - proven pair spawned 3-4 times, wild adults.
- - one wild adult.
- - proven tank raised pair, spawned multiple times.
- - group of 8 wild caught adults, looks to be 4 females and 4 males.
- - two adult tank raised fish, unsure of sexes.
- - group of 6 fish all female unfortunately, wild caught.
- - 4 wild caught adults, from size/body shape I believe 2 female and 2 male.
- - pair of wild caught adults
- - no longer bringing due to limited space in sales tanks.

Great selection of fishes - wish I could make it this year, but need to be a hermit for a couple of weeks before I head over to Mexico.

Enjoy Mexico Jools, I'm sure it'll be at least as good as a weekend in Wigan !

Once I have figured out how much space I have available to keep the fish in my hotel room ahead of the auction, I may also bring 5 , but would prefer to know in advance if there is any interest in them.

A few fish I will be offering at the Convention:


Ancistrus 'super red'







Cheers,
Mark Walters

I think I'll also bring my for the auction, I've been planning what to put in my tanks already .

Mark - for the Cat-eLog link, you can go to the species page and scroll down to the end, in the section 'Further Information' there is a field called Forum BB code that looks like this but with square brackets, (clog) catfish name here (/clog), just copy/paste that into your post in place of the name and it'll link for you.

Common names work too. So (clog)Bronze Cory(/clog) or gives .

Have a great time at the convention, hope to be there next year.

Jools

I've caught the fish to confirm what I am bringing, I've updated my previous post to show what I'll put in the auction.

See some of you there next weekend!

If anyone is interested I can bring:

Panaqolus claustellifer (L306), 5 or 6 tank raised juveniles at 4-5cm.

Parancistrus aurantiacus F1 juveniles, 5-6 at about 4-5cm.

Ancistrus wabenmuster, tank raised juveniles at 4cm.

I can only bring a limited amount. Collection on Friday.
