Even if you dont have the cash to drop on some corals, it is just a great show to attend. Lots of the vendors are there (so you can ask them any questions you have in person), a lot of the people you have only known via the forums you can actually meet in person, and its just a good time to see all the eye candy and new products. Plus the raffle is nothing to fall asleep on.

Anyone on here gone on a Sunday before? Due to my work schedule i'm gonna have to miss out on Saturday. I'm either thinking all the good stuff will be picked over or I might be able to actually get some really good deals late Sunday because they are wanting to get rid of their stuff. This will be my 4th year going and I think it actually has gone down hill alittle to be honest

I'm going Sunday myself, first timer too. I visited the website and noticed a 5 dollar off coupon. It's a tiny one though and I don't think it is meant to be printed out and used. Does anyone know how to get that coupon?

I'm trying to find out myself about this coupon too. I'll let you know if I find out how to download it or what. Also you can get a coupon from this quarters Reef Hobbyists Magazine.
