I got some great corals today, and happy to meet a few local farmers. Not as many people or booths as I expected.

Next time we should organize a meet up for our group at the hotel bar or something :D

I'll post pictures later but came home with a yellowish bubble coral, blue tenuis, mint green with purple tip branching cyphastrea, a couple of rock nems, and a goni with a mint base and lavender tips.

I hadn’t been to the last couple CFMs but compared to the last one I did go to this one was awesome! Only went to meet up with another reefer to pick some stuff up, so I wasn’t really shopping hard.

Ended up with these zoas totally unexpectedly. They just looked super healthy and nice couldn’t leave them there. Ran into @Dipan00 chatted about the growout.

Overall show just seemed a lot more alive then the last one I was at.

Nice, I grabbed 4 polyps my self, I thought it was more vibrant myself, everybody seemed Happy and social

Grabbed some of my favorite sought after corals, the Insane Plate, and a Master Bowerbanki to name a few

Was a fun show. Been super picky with whats going in my tank now as it way over grown and running out of space. Picked up a Vivid insanity frag from guys that live a mile away from me. Cool to see some high end acro dealers in my neck of the woods.

I'm bummed that I missed the show.

I fell and busted my shoulder on the ground. I'm pretty sure my collarbone was dislocated. X-rays were negative, but I have a lot of pain and can't lift my arm a few inches.

Damn, that sucks! I missed it because we’re still without power and I’m approaching 36hrs without power. I was really looking forward to chatting with a few people again Ana possibly picking up a couple smoothies. Ugh!

The show was great, I'm a stick head and found a lot of great pieces including an insanity @Dipan00 I wonder if it was the same vendor. My buddy Daniel from defugiums reef couldn't make the show due to the weather unfortunately. Based on his pics he was bringing some fire !!

I’d say cash, but if y’all can think of anything else, and most importantly is @BST310 up for it too.
I’m in! What would be the winnings?

I’d be in for a zoa growout comp. Give the non SPS people a chance to participate in a contest.

Who has a large hallucination colony to chop up? I’m happy to it together / keep track.
