Nice Tim :)

Let's keep this going. Remember a nice group of beautiful Red Turquoise Discus + shipping + Al's FDBWs are all included in your bid. What a deal.

[brewmaster15]

So...I just re-read my intro post here and realized that even after reading and re-reading multiple times I missed a key detail.:( The size ! You can get an idea how big they are by the pics but these beauties are between 5.5 and 6 inches! Thats some nice fishes indeed!

No doubt! I know these auctions often end below full retail, but $350 with less than 12 hours to go?

[Second Hand Pat]

Only a couple hours left. Get those bids in. :D

[eros904]

[GivensOU]

I'm increasing my bid to $400, as long as Al agrees to have a beer with me at NADA! Of course the drink is on me.

[brewmaster15]

Congratulations Tim! Looks like you got your wish on winning the auction and got a killer deal as well! 4 super nice fish, freeze dried blackworms and shipping for $400! Incredible! SIMPLY INCREDIBLE!:)

Our thanks to those that bid and especially to Darwin and Wes from Uncle Sams Discus for their generosity!

Off course these auctions are meant to raise funds for the forum . Maybe you wanted to help but have no tank space or maybe just short on funds for the auction... no worries there folks we will have other ones down the road....but if you are the impatient type..you can always use this link..http://forum.simplydiscus.com/misc.php?do=donate
24 hours a day/7 days a week.:)


Thanks again everyone and congrats Tim...btw. Make mine a stout or IPA:)

Al

[Keith Perkins]

Well done, congrats. As for Al's Stout or IPA at the NADA show there's a very nice bar in the hotel with a lot of beers on tap and a brewhouse right across the street from the main entrance into the hotel and mall complex. Should be a very easy debt for you to pay.

Thanks to Uncle Sam's Discus for the great introduction to the forum.

[rickztahone]

Congrats Tim on the great deal you just won! Turqs are my favorite and had I the tank space, I would not have minded going on a bidding war with you ;)

[Kal-El]

Congratz on the win.

[Altum Nut]

Way to go Tim...you scored a nice group.
Thanks again to Darwin and Wes for your generous donation.

[Fundulopanchax]

Excellent, Tim!
