Just curious to see who all is going to be at RAP this weekend! It was a blast in Orlando last year and this year I’m sure will be no different!

From Indiana. I’ve been here all week, can’t wait for the show to start tomorrow. I’ve been seeing vendors all over the hotel lately.

Reef2reef members meetup anywhere?
I know we aren’t doing an “official meetup” but we always encourage people to swing by the R2R booth to come chat with some of the staff members! Or meet other members who will hang around our booth, haha

I don't plan on going but excited for some y'all never been. Not as good as precovid. Talk with as many vendors and people as you can but also remember they are trying to make money and recoup loss from cost to rent and setup as well as time. If you feel ignored, they are not trying to be rude. Best to catch between lows. Some people are going to cut in front of you are push there way in to look at things. So just be aware and don't let it get to you. People want to see everything as much as possible so you will have to also stand your ground lol. You will get to see some corals and things in person you may never see again. So be prepared if you see something you want to buy it then if it's a unique.

It’ll be my first RAP. Very excited. Good excuse to make the short road trip with the wife and baby!
I went to MACNA years ago I assume it’ll be similar.
If I buy corals, vendors have no problem holding them in their systems till Sunday afternoon right?

Depends on the vendor but most are accommodating.
