hi all,

I got a fragging kit from boston reefers... some plugs from coral cradle. I talked with my buddy over at reef nutrition got some goodies there. met up with another buddy from reefermadness.

saw the solaris light from PFO. they but a side by side demo of a 400w pfo light with a 20k xm bulb and a 4h solaris unit. with PAR meters. the 400watter was at 170 par and the solaris was at 245..... WOW.

lots to see.

oh yeah,

the whole show almost got closed down due to a fire. somehow one started in the wall as you walked in. people were thinking that the power consumption caused it...

i was hoping to get frags also. my wife had my cooler. i live 2hrs away. it just didnt work out. next year i will be better prepared. :)

i dont have any pics of the the fire caper. it was kinda stupid. some of the people think it was the lighting. but i think some moron exinguished a cigarette in the wrong place... or it was a ploy to get people to evacuate and steal stuff.

the only thing that bugged me is that some of the big coral vendors didnt real give show prices. VIVID didnt discount things until they realized that people were just looking at their great selection but $65 for a 1" frag.....

that was my only gripe.... :ridinghorse: (off my soap box now)

I agree. The prices were not what I was expecting.
