MACNA 2016 will have a table to promote next year's MACNA event. Come on by their table for more info and registration.

PLEASE NOTE - There is parking directly across the street from the convention center. BUT....since this is Gatlinburg....expect to pay about $5 for parking.



Please visit our event page on Reef Trader (http://www.reeftrader.com) and check out the AWESOME frag pack contest they are having for this Expo!

We are working our tails off to make this The Best Coral Expo in the South East. So spread the word and start saving your "clams". And if you have time, check out some of the wonderful restaurants and attractions that beautiful downtown Gatlinburg has to offer. Hope to see you there!

Until last Monday that was a fact, unfortunately I experienced a complete tank crash and lost all 95% of my corals.

OMG! Man Rob; so sorry.

OMG! Man Rob; so sorry.

Thanks Jeff, It was a major punch to the gut. On the bright side, I'm going to build a new system from scratch.....I started with tiny frags and I have the love of the hobby to do it again.

Man I'm so sorry I had a crash a little while back and it was devastating. I hope all is well maybe I can bring you some frags to the show to help you out, just let me know when we get closer

 

[Reefrookie220]

Dang man that's terrible. How bug was your tank?

If you wanna start from scratch check out my 220 sale thread. I'll hook you up with a deal for your losses!

 

[11f150]

I will be there as well! Looking forward to it!

 

[TrainWreck]

It was a 60 gallon shallow. I wish I had room for a 220 and I'm pretty sure my wife would kick me out of the house if I showed up with a tank that large.... lol thanks for the offer anyways

 

[TrainWreck]

Guess the expo booths are sold out. Get in touch with me. We have a led light fixture to donate to the raffle and possibly a rodi system just waiting to hear from a supplier. We can drop them off to you or feel free to swing by the fish store and pick them up.
