I can't wait, last year was a blast!! Gresham, BAR and Co. put on a great show :)

Please let me know if there's any special requests. I have access to planty of good stuff so if you're looking for something in particular please let me know.

+1 on the chalices. I would also like to see some fungia, sponges, micromussa, and awesome mobile inverts. +1 on the NPS, too

My vote would be for zoas, sans fancy names, since I'll be running a softie tank but I'm sure vendors will be bringing them already anyway. :)

I think they always have cool stuff (zoas, acans, chalices, etc.)

Is the IC-Gel going to be available that day?

I will have glue for BAR members. It will not be out for sale on the table you will need to ask me for it.

Why won't it be out for sale?

Because we have a limited supply and it is (in theory) for club members. Recall we do not make a profit on the sales of glue. The other issue is that other vendors (in the past) have sold it or something similar (BAF etc) and we don't really want to undercut anyone on wholesale priced glue.

If it hasn't been said I'll be looking out for an australomussa. Nothing CRAZY colored something with colors that put it in an affordable price range :)

+1 to some nps, Red Epizoanthus would be very nice :)
I'd like to see some aquarium specific induction lamps, not slightly realistic though.
Is there going to be an aquascape contest this year again? I completely missed it last year

Red Dragon acro, though I am not sure I can afford it. Do vendors take children in trade?

No 'scape contest this year. Not enough interest. Besides, I really was doing it in conjunction with Jake in the hopes of a national contest and it appears he has lost some interest since REEFstock had no scape contest this year :(

That entire deal needs to be worked out more. IMO a dry tank with just rock is not going to push the scape contest scene anywhere. There needs to be fake corals added and make even equipment to work around. I wouldn't mind seeing the tanks filled with water actually, and maybe limiting it to smaller tank size, like some AIO unit :D

Several of the vendors are known for those so I think you'll be happy :)

Still need that tape? If you don't want me to send it, I could drop it off at Neptune's in Miltpitas for you. I can;t get out to your area I am afraid :(
