I stopped by the OC Coral Show in Placentia today to check out the show (and all of the future SCR sponsors LOL), and it was pretty packed and had good energy. Met a lot of cool vendors (shoutout to some of the SCR members Pa1ntbrus5h, I had no idea he was the guy behind Crumb 2 Colony and Tangerine Speedo!) Here are some of the pics of the vendors the show. I bought an ATI ICP test from the Simplicity vendor, and won a Coral Nerd hat in the raffle! (I had won a Coral Nerd shirt from last year's show.) So I think I'm like a walking billboard for his shop now. LOL. The grand raffle prize was a wild Hawaiian Yellow Tang...too bad I didn't win it! Boo!!!! It was a fun show.

Thank you, thank you! I couldn't be happier. I'll post pics one of these days.

I wish I would've talked to more of you guys, but I don't know what you all look like. I asked two guys if they were on socalireefs and they looked at me like I was crazy so I gave up.

I hope to meet more of you one of these days.

I got there around 1pm, and stuck around for the raffle. I don't know what anyone else looks like either LOL.

@EyeReef Where's the merch?

I pretty much sold out of everything. It was pretty good seeing @Jimbo327 again. I was scored a beautiful PC rainbow in a vendor swap that everybody asked about throughout the day. I would give a crazy price because I wanted to keep it for myself. About 4:30 a woman asks about it I give the crazy price and I literally said because I want to keep it and she said "OK I'll take it..." Arrghhh! But hey, we need some new shoes on the car. I traded some nice multi head hammers to Steve for some sticks. I wish more folks were into sticks but I think they intimidate many. It was a lot of hard work and stress but I love doing it. I think... :unsure:

Did anyone get the name of the vendor who was selling fish in the front? He had a variety of fish, like anthias, wrasses, etc.

I was there at door opening with my 3 kids. Got them some 3d printed goodies. Got myself a Strat finally and some blood shots. Got a jawbreaker shroom and some firework cloves. I had just bought some Phyto but i loved the door giveaway. Always a good time
