To be honest I wasn't that impressed, no offense to anyone, I understand all the hard work and sacrifice that goes into a event like this. I guess I just expected something different. Was still a good experience got to connect with some vendors and got to know their products a little better. But one day was enough for me. Btw this was my first time attending Reefapalooza.

Again, I had a blast. Best to be there with friends to conjol and learn. After a bit one coral looks like another. Being there yesterday before the all the lights were on was very interesting to me in that I could see how much light plays in this hobby. I felt sad for little kids that were bored to tears and their moms were fatigued but Dad was all googo eyed with the new stuff.

Honestly it was my first time there and I brought my friends over and they did the raffle idk why(they don't have saltwater) , and my friend won the advance acrylic sump that was awesome ,but the event wasn't impressing but it was worth while seeing everyone all under one roof and sharing ideas was great

I thought I saw more eye candies last year than this year. Corals quality and selections seems to be the same or maybe slightly worse than previous years but the prices stay the same if not higher. Did you see that WWC Bounce that was sold for $6000? Insane!����

A couple of booths had bagged fish & inverts ready to grab & go. Reef Lounge had brought a starry blenny for me but when I got there at 11:30 they realized that they put it into Marine Depot's display tank. Apparently MD really wanted a fish that just sat and did nothing.

Overall....I spent too much money. So that means I had a good time. ;)
