Sweet, glad you could make it Steve :D Being I first met you @ a WMC, I think it's quite fitting to have you their again :D

Thanks and I look forward to seeing you there again as well. :mrgreen: I never sold the tank you saw at the Monterey WMC so I will be using it again this year. I don't want to take it home again so we will be selling $5 raffle tickets. Here is a photo of the tank as it looked in Monterey. The only thing different this time around is all the corals will be 100% tank raised. That is no part of the coral has been cut from growth that occurred in the wild. Actually most of the parents are many times removed from the original wild colony. I'm fairly proud of this!

:D I first met you at the WMC prior to that, in Sac. I attended both shows. I just had to remind Ed R. of Liquid Life that we first met @ the Sacto show as well :p
 
Looks like we won't be taking a tank to the conference this time. I will have a computer slide show to show off our corals and some lighting products as well. If there is anything in particular anyone would like to see let me know.
 
That sucks Steve. Maybe max will let you display some of your corals in his tank?
