Dear SimplyDiscus Friends,

The fish for this auction are the exact fish shown in the pictures below.

Please note that the winner will pay for shipping (Kenny's discounted Fedex Priority Overnight rate). Canadian members can participate in this auction if they are near the Canadian/US border and can arrange with Kenny to pick them up at a FedEx location or airport in the US

The auction will end Monday June 16 at 10:00 PM EST

What are we bidding on? Are all the fish altum flora? Is each bid an automatic bid for 4 of any size fish? Can we bid lower then the recently posted bids and still have a chance?
Sorry for the questions but I'm not clear on the whole thing.

Jay, have you read the first post? This auction is for four of Kenny's Altum Flora Cross discus between 5.0 to 6.0 inches. Pictures of the actual fish are in the first post of this thread. The highest bid wins the auction when the auction closes which is 10 pm EST on June 16th. Really makes no sense to bid lower. Hope this helps to clarify.

This is my favorite auction and trust me you won't be disappointed if you get these fish, the blue is awesome in person! Please let's get the bids going on this one, this auction is worth $600 if you called and ordered 4 from Kenny, and as I said before it is for the forum. Forrest and Kenny were so kind to donate them for the forum, don't pass this one up!

Trust me I was staring at these fish yesterday at Kenny's place, the pictures are good but still do them no justice. In person these guys are big, very heathy, and colors and shape are just awesome. Only 6 and a half hours left, bid on these fish I promise you won't be sorry would be great fish for a show tank or breeding :)!

Snow won this one too?? With a bid made after 10pm turned. Sorry but, how did Snow manage to get 2 bids in (with the 30 second delay in posting) both time stamped 10pm. This must have taken some precision. Again, any bid made after the clock turned 10pm should not count.

Good grief.....I catching slack for this one as well. Sorry guy's I sat here and waited for 2 hours to place my bids just like everyone else. I also know up to how much $$$ I want to bid and willing to pay for something. Sorry some are disappointed in this but again, A huge thank you to those who congratulated me. As I stated on the other post....if my bid would have showed up at 10:01 then I would have expected to not win.
