OH ABSOLUTELY!!!  And when you get them home they are
down right hideous looking. They look worse that a Riv
weberi, Riv marmarotus are more colorful. They won't
spawn over Coconut Fiber, and are not at all worth the
effort. Oh, the odor, skunk fish!!! I certainly
wouldn't waste the energy it takes to hold up a
bidding paddle.  The AKA should be greatful you are
willing to waste the food to keep them alive.

How was that?  Did I do all right?

I did, however, snag the Coconut Fiber out of the
winning pairs tank. I may be just a girl but I'm not a
stupid one ;-)  Ahhh, the benefit of tearing down the
show. All that work does have its rewards.

Some early bird beat me to the dirt out of the First
Place Notho's Barry Cooper entered.  He must have
REALLY wanted them because he sure got in there, had
those fish bagged and was gone with the dirt before
anyone knew it.  I still haven't figured out who it
was but he has my utmost respect ;-)  The rule at WCW
is "You snooze you loose".
