What does everyone use for a display tank at local fragfests?

Curious about:
-How you package and transport your corals
-What you use for a skimmer
-Size of display tank/dimensions/who did you buy yours from?
 
There are many, many different things you can do. I always carried like a 20long with some egg crate and a clamp on light when I would go sell. You don't need a skimmer. Just a small heater and maybe a small powerhead. :)
 
The sharpest set-ups that I have seen are the small footprint shallow cubes. Usually acrylic tanks, I wana say the 24x24x8 would be a standard size. All I see on them for filtration is generally a little HOB filter with a heater in the tank. The lights are usually mounted high enough off the tank to be able to get decent top-down views. Hope that helps! Several of the sponsors here travel to the various shows around the country to set-up and sell, so they would be good at providing more specific info.
