Lucky! If you have the opportunity to volunteer either with a vendor or the show i recommend it. Really changes ones perspective.

I will also be attending! First timer too, so I can't give any advice, but am looking forward to it!

Awesome thanks for that. Exactly how would one go about volunteering?

If you are a member of DFWMAS, which is great by the way, there was a sign up sheet for vendors and volunteers. Not sure how to do it otherwise.

I’ve been to many trade shows, but this is my first aquarium related show.

I will go, local for me. Any hints on getting good deals? I don't haggle much, but I'm wondering if there are discounts at the end of the show?

Happy to know several r2r reefers will be out therr. I have no idea honestly about deals it's my first time as well but I'm hoping to have a great selection to choose from being the first day. I won't be able to make it Sunday so who knows there may be some really good deals of ppl trying to sell off last minute items. Is love to see pictures of your purchases back here on this thread after the event.
