    In person June 13, 2026 - CCA Group Auction @ John F. Kennedy High School: 1901 Randolph Rd, Wheaton-Glenmont, MD 20902

    June 13, 2026 CCA In-person Auction

    We have created an auction for the June 13, 2026 in-person CCA meeting. Users of the website must register on the CCA MyGroupAuction website: mygroupauctions.com. Sellers are encouraged to upload a photo of the fish/item to be auctioned. These items can be viewed by all registered users before the auction.

    CCA's board of directors has voted to allow the use of the minimum bid space on the MY GROUP AUCTIONS (MGA) website. Specifically the BOD approved the use of the minimum bid in the following manner: Bidding for any item with a minimum bid on its label will start at that amount and proceed as normal for any auction. If the minimum bid is not met, the owner of the item will take the item back into his possession. If the owner is not present to take back his item that did not sell, the minimum bid indicated on the label will not be in effect and so there will be no minimum bid on the item.

    Please try to bring something for the auction. If you can make it a donation, so much the better. It's our club. If we want to keep it healthy, we all need to play a role.

    If you have any questions, please ask.

    Anyone producing daphnia?

    Frank Cowherd used to keep the club pretty well supplied at the auctions every month, but I guess he’s retired? I’m going to try to get a culture going at home but wanted to ask if anyone in the club was working with them. Thanks!

    Easiest DIY substrate for planted tanks?

    First my ‘Plants Anonymous’ statement. Hi, my name is Charlie and I murder plants. I used to solely keep tanganyikans and could only keep some java fern, anubias and some vals alive. I’m trying some community tanks with rainbow fish, tetras and rams. I’ve added some plants and been 50/50 at keeping them alive. I’ve upgraded the lights on some to the LED 24/7 auto cycle and that seems to help and some LED shop lights on others which are not as great but ok. I have sand in most of the tanks, so I’ve used some ceramic pots with open bottoms and foam to hold the plants with some root tabs.

    I want to take the plunge and add plant substrates with a sand or gravel cap layer. I could use some advice on the best way to do it (I believe I need to relocate fish for the process) and where to source the material. I’ve got two 75’s, two 40 breeders, eventually a 125 and a couple 10’s or 15’s. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!
