Some of my Favorite Photos from RAP Orlando 2019

[nautical_nathaniel]

Hi folks! Reefapalooza Orlando 2019 was this past weekend and I thought I would share some of my favorite photos that I took during the event! Feel free to let me know what you think!

Naturally, there were several eye catching colors in every frag tank!

I found a few things to add to my wish list as well...

RAP had something for everyone, LPS, SPS, Softies and even a few NPS corals:

The fish to coral ration was like 1:500 in terms of what was for sale

There were also plenty of things I would need to win the lottery to be able to afford...

Not reef aquarium related, but Hydor had a pretty niffy freshwater planted tank set up, filled to the brim with plants.

All I know is I can't wait to go back! Thanks for viewing!

Nice pics man! I was debating making the drive up myself. So you would say definitely worth it?

Thanks!

For $20 and a little bit of headache from dealing with Orlando traffic, oh yea it's worth it! I made my money back in free samples (some of which were full size) in a few minutes at the show! Not to mention you get to meet all sorts of folks you see around on here and elsewhere in the hobby

I try! It was quite tricky getting some of these shots, I sometimes had to elbow my way in just to get a clear view! Thanks though!

I'm looking forward to Rap Chicago in October.

Aquashella in August too.

I wish I could go to all of the shows haha, especially Aquashella since it focuses on the freshwater side of things as well. I still like a well put together planted system!

I'm in the market for wild type angels for my freshwater Amazon tank. If I don't have them by August hopefully I'll find a good source for them at aquashella as well as some corals.

For my next question, what did you take the pictures with?

For my next question, what did you take the pictures with?

A Nikon D3200 paired with a 35mm prime lens no other attachments were used other than a lens hood. A little bit of post processing was done as well to get the colors right.

You have skills, with a camera and post processing
