I can't wait! MACNA is my favorite event of the year. This will be my third year going... I should have started going years ago!

If anyone is on the fence about going, just go... You will be glad you did!

Even if you don't go to see the speakers, the trade show is insane! Loads of freebies and great people to talk about the hobby. You will leave with your head spinning full of ideas for your tank...

Wow, I am not missing Chris Jury, Rich Ross, Sanjay Joshi, and Joe Yaiullo!

This is like the All Star lineup at MACNA!

I already have my question for Sanjay lined up:

"Which lights are best?"

 

[dmatta82]

I can only make 1 day, saturday or sunday, which one would be better? And which day has most speakers, venders, opportunities and freebies?

 

[prattreef]

Saturday for sure. Sun. is more like a half day.

 

[Simon Garratt]

And you never know folks...If someone has a dicky tummy on the day, you may even get to see me up there doing my thang....I thought it only polite to offer myself as a reserve speaker seeing as i'm attending..

 

[albano]

And you never know folks...If someone has a dicky tummy on the day

Here's another note from one of our MANY exhibitors:
This Friday--Saturday--Sunday--THE EVENT OF THE YEAR
If you are anywhere in the Eastern half of the country the drive to MACNA will be an easy one this year as the event is hosted by the NJ reef club and is located at Atlantic City, NJ. The NJ reefers are masters of hosting such events so this should be one of the very best MACNAs ever!!!!!!!!!
There will be tons of great vendors with every imaginable type of reefkeeping equipment and livestock for you to look at, touch, ask about, and buy. World renowned speakers are lined up to help answer your most detailed questions, entertainment of the finest imaginable, and the shear fact that you will be there with over 1000 fellow hobbyists all with the same goal in mind--learning how to better keep our critters in our personal reefs.
IF YOU ARE A BEGINNER OR ADVANCED HOBBYIST THIS IS THE ONE EVENT YOU MUST ATTEND!!!!!! NO WHERE ELSE WILL YOU BE SURROUNDED BY SO MANY FELLOW HOBBYISTS, LIVESTOCK, AND EQUIPMENT!! Come for the weekend or JUST ONE DAY, it will be well worth your time. While online forums such as this one are great, there is no comparison to actually living reefkeeping live and in person at the grand daddy event of the year--BE THERE!!!!!
Stop by our booth and say Hi!! we will be offering for sale 100+ clams, 1200+ frags, our own unique Pieces Of The Reef, our own exclusive Australian Ultimate Rainbow Acans, and so much more. All at special super low show prices!!!!!!!!!!!! Dr.Mac, www.pacificeastaquaculture.com

Here's the floor plan of where the vendors are going to be. See you at the show!!
