[Second Hand Pat]

Dear SimplyDiscus Friends,

We are pleased to announce that Kenny and Forrest have kindly donated twelve 5 to 5.5 inch discus for three auctions. For auction Three the highest bidder will receive Four 5" Red Carnation Turquoises.

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

As an added bonus Barb from Delightful Designs Discus Cones have generously donated two of her beautiful hand made breeding cones to each of the 3 winners and she has included shipping.

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 Sunday, November 16th at 8:00 PM EST

For any questions please send myself or Al a PM or email Kenny (kennysdiscus@gmail.com) since we will be monitoring the auction. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Kenny, Forrest and Barb for their generous donations.

Pat,

Thank you very much for organizing these 3 groups of auction fish as always. Happy bidding to all and thank you all for your support to SD in advance!

Here are some quick tank pics of them after being tanked for 2 days only. Since I have all 12 SD auction fish in the same tank I will post this similar set on all 3 auction threads.

[Kenny's Discus]

Al, Pat;

You know the pleasure is ours and you're more than welcome. As mentioned these pics were taken only 48 after their arrival, they are already looking even better today here, and they are doing and eating great. Thank you for providing this great forum for all to use free of charge over the years. If anyone wants to support our great SD forum now is a great time!:)

Thank you both very much!

Kenny

[rickztahone]

Just to be perfectly clear, there are TWO forms of bidding in the 3 current auctions.

You can do an "Open Bid" directly here on the thread, where you can see what others are bidding, and try to outbid them publicly,
Or, you can do a "Sealed Bid" which gets sent to the moderation team only, and the general public does not know what you have submitted.

You can do both forms of bidding at any time.

If you have any further questions, or feel that something isn't clear, please let us know.

[kris2341]

$50!

Since that is all I have in my pocket, along with a few coins... worth a shot right? LOL

My turqs need new buddies!
