I have never been to one before, but keep hearing about all kinds of deals on certain fish. I am wanting to check an auction out. Does anyone know a site where you can find out when and where they will be? Anything that I need to know before going? Do you get to look at the fish you are bidding on and then wait till the go up for auction?

Sorry for the stupid questions, but thanks in advance.

I do check that out daily, but was talking more about local auctions. I always seem to find out about them after it is too late.
 
fish auctions are a bit iffy. id prefer buying from our own buy and sell forum from our trusted roster of community sellers.
 
There will be a fish auction in your neck-o-the woods on Jan 5 at the Circle City Aquarium Clubs monthly meeting. I'll be selling stuff there so be sure to come out & bid 'til it hurts!!!!

Spoken like a true site promoter....... :ROFL: I sooooo funny. :thumbsup:
 
Jd Man is refering to auctions done by local fish clubs that you got to and bid on items displayed by the auctioneer. He's not refering to the "on line" type fish auction.

There are a few with in reasonable driving distance to you JD. Get on circle city's web site for meeting and auction dated. Also check out GCAS web site for thier meetings and auction dates (greater Cincinatti Aquarium Society) They have one in the spring and one in the fall, the spring auction is huge. There is also a real big one in northern ohio done by Ohio cichlid association, not sure of thier web site though (google it) I believe there is one in Columbus Ohio too. If your into reef tanks, there are a couple frag swaps that are worth going to as well that I can post the info if your (or anyone elce) is interested or just go to Daytonreef.com or Cincyreef.com for information.
