Coral farmers market

I’m going are you?

So how was it? Was there a good crowd? Was social distancing practiced? We still have Aquashella on tap for Dallas and I just don't see how that is going to work. They say they will be able to keep social distancing practices working but I don't see how. Last year they reported 6700 attended and it was a mess. I'm sure attendance will be down due to less people traveling for it but still I don't see how they will keep it organized. I can see a lot of tense moments with people wanting to look at corals but having to stay 6 feet back waiting for the dude in front of them that is just looking and telling the vendor their tanks life history.

They had a max capacity at 100 and they did well. I wasn’t there for long but when I left they had a line waiting to get in

Glad to hear that. Just not sure how well that will work with something as large as Aquashella. Especially based on some of the replies I see from people on our local facebook groups. If those people show up I can see them causing problems since they don't want to wear a mask.
