CHANGES TO THE BLA AUCTION AND SALES TABLE FORMATS
The BLA are getting ready for possible future legislation covering Livestock sales at Auctions and Sales tables. The sale of Livestock (in our case this means fish, shrimp and snails) is coming under scrutiny. To ensure we are ready for this, we have had to make a few changes to the way we run our Auctions and Sales Tables.
Our Auctions have already been using a system to pre-book Auction Lots. This system works well when correctly followed. However, when it isn’t correctly followed it can cause delays to the start of the Auction and a lot of stress to those who have to bring it back on track.
The booking system will now extend to Livestock sold through the Sales Table as well as the Auction.
When you pre-book your Auction and Salestable livestock, it solves many issues and headaches for us as organisers of the event. The first thing it does is allow us sufficient time to populate the Auction and Sales Table spreadsheets so we can record all the sales.
Don’t worry, we fully appreciate looking at your aquariums and making your list of Auction lots and Sales table items for pre-booking and going to catch them on the day are two different things. There will be time for you to confirm and where necessary alter your Auction lot and Sales table items on the sheets prior to the auction (Please give us the time to do this without delaying the auction).
AUCTION
- The Auction is for essentially fish only.
Please put all shrimp and snails onto the sales table table, (see sales table – Livestock below). - Each Seller will be allowed to enter a maximum of 50 lots into the auction.
- This is a livebearer fish auction – Non livebearers are allowed within specified limits.
A minimum of 80% of your lots must be made up of livebearing fish. ie 4 out of every 5 lots are made up of Livebearing fish. If you wish to bring a higher ratio of non-livebearers as part of your lots
please fill in the section at the bottom marked relevant information. - Unsuitable fish for auction
no large aggressive hybrid cichlids such as flowerhorns. If in doubt ask first. - Deviation from the above rules
Requests for additional lots or a higher ratio of non-livebearing fish lots will be considered on an individual basis. This request must be made directly to the auction manager before submitting any booking sheets.
SALES TABLE – LIVESTOCK
You are allowed to enter a maximum of 25 livestock Sales table items, this includes Shrimp, Snails and all suitable fish (no restriction on amount of non-livebearing fish).
All livestock items MUST be booked in.
If time allows, any unsold Livestock from the sales table may be sold during natural breaks in the Auction (this is totally dependant on time constraints).
SALES TABLE – NON-LIVESTOCK
You are allowed to Enter ????
