Hampshire Aquascaping and Fish are taking over this huge music venue for a day long fishkeeping event.

OPEN FISH AUCTION - livebearers, home-bred catfish and cichlids, we'reopen to all types of high quality fish & plants. Prior registration is required and we reserve the right to refuse certain lots (for example, large common plecs, poor quality pet-shop guppies).
