Went yesterday, and bought two corals for a great price. They were huge and they guy even went down on price without me asking. I got a couple of technical question answered by the vendors, so all in all it was a good experience. I even found this blog through the Reef2Reef booth and signed up.

Do a search here on R2R, or if on google, go to images and it should be the first pic. Its bluish central body, orange polyps, with green tips.

Interesting i thought that first picture was a forest fire digitada. Now i see the polyps are not as reddish orange as forest fire. When it comes to montipora. I can not think of another SPS that comes close to the colors and contrast.

Just got back home from the show, had a great time. Won a few raffle prizes, wife got a photo with the Tanked crew, and saw loads of great coral and new products. Was very impressed with lots of new products but a few caught my eye. The Deepwater DC15 pump they had on display that was pumping water up about 15ft of Pvc pipe. I'll be honest I had no idea what that tall display was there for till I asked, very quite and powerful DC pump for sure. Seeing the new Kessil Lighting was also very nice. Puratek also had a very impressive controller system setup complete with cameras and auto topoff. I'm loving all the innovations this hobby is enjoying. Thumbs up to Reef2reef, WWC and all the vendors for putting together such a great show. I will be in attendance for the next Show. Congrats to all the raffle winners as I hear that 150 gallon tank will be making it's way to Alabama.

Awesome show! and my hat goes off to WWC for setting up such a large organized event. All vendors had their best on display and it was hard to stay within budget. I probably spent way too much myself, but who wouldn't with such selection found there.

See you guys next year!

Dates have been set for next year and it will the weekend of April 23 & 24 2016! So there is plenty of time to mark you calenders now, and put in for vacation time at work.
