What was your Best Deal/Find at the BCA Auction???

[fraggalrock]

Ok we are all talking about how awesome it was now lets talk about what your best buy was something that you really wanted and got for a great deal or even something you bought on an impulse and you dont know what to do with it? but you had to buy it!!
For me my best deal was a new in box Biocube skimmer works about as good as they do and only paid $7.00 for and impulse a huge Featherfin Catfish..it was love at first sight even though I didnt have a tank for him.I bought him and sent him home to Eds(shaobo)house to live in a 100 gallon.

Haha... I thought the $4 water pump was a steal, but it doesn't work.... doh.... -_-..... now I gotta find another pump for my water change...

BTW, the featherfin is still in the 33 long QT, he is such a fat fish~

My Fluval Flora for $70 (NO KIDDING)

My wife & daughter loves it too. Red frogfish super happy as you can see from the expression on his face.

That red frogfish looks so cool. It is probably thinking: "Are you taking a picture of me? Have you got my best side?.."

My best deals were the two tanks I got that Seahorse wanted.

My 5gal Rimless(with a hose, filter, driftwood, floating plants, and a couple submersible variety.) for like $35 i think it was.

And my other, the SMALLER Fluval Flora (3Gal I think) for 47$$ with soil, and plants. (This one was a GREAT deal, as people kept bidding me up. lol)

Also got 4 different Bettas (uncommon/rare) for the total price of like $15 i think it was.

But essentially, i saved a couple hundred bucks with ALL the stuff factored in that I bought.
4 small tanks and a large bowl, couple of filters, a 300W heater, 6 uncommon/rare fish, like 8 plants, couple of pieces of driftwood, bunch of chems ($75 worth for $10), and some test kits. Oh yah, and hydrometer.

I remember looking at the 5 gallon and the flora tank with Seahorse and originally I had thought he had won the rimless with the floating plants. We both had admired it and said it was very zen with the floating plants and all! Nice little tank!

For me personally, I picked up some lovely guppies 3 pair and won some shrimp food thanks to Aprils aquarium!

I love my silver dollars and the albino bnps that we picked up, and AWW's severum fry are super cute. I'm also pretty happy with Gordon's UV sterilizer.

Best buy: def the black 3M colorquartz sand.

@shaobo: so YOU were the person who outbid me on that featherfin! Let me know if you ever want to rehome him...I've got 5 bigger featherfins that he could pal around with.

Hey Ed:

If it is from #34, bring it back anytime. I tried to test every pump I put in the tub but might have missed one or two - all of mine I know were working before I even store them.

In fact, mine or not, swing by any time and you can grab a replacement FF

Is that actually a smile

I did not buy a thing and was just hoping to take home $200 with the 58 items I brought down. Netted over $300 and with left over items.

I was standing at the back watching the bidding on my items. I think a couple times I actually screamed stop None of them were bad deals, like the heaters that were used may be for 30days but I could have sold for cheaper on the forum
