For those that don’t know, Hunter (@evolved) is one of the foremost experts on wrasses. We are lucky to have him as part of our group. Please bring any and all wrasse questions you might have for him.

 

[Ef4life]

I’ve actually never kept a wrasse since our very first saltwater tank back in the 90s we had a six line.

I'm interested in these? How does this work

 

[KingFitz]

When you arrive to the meeting as evolved for your bidder number. Toward the end of the meeting the auctions will be held. If you're interested in a particular coral you'll hold your bidder number up in the air. They'll start off with the sellers starting price and then count up from there. People lower their cards as the price rises beyond what they're willing to pay. The last person holding up their bidder number wins the coral and pays the treasurer at the conclusion of the auction. I hope that helps! P.S. (edit) I forgot to add that you must be a current member to participate in the auctions.
