I have to say that MACNA 2012 was a lot of fun! Those are some great pics Mindy, none of mine really turned out. Please send me that pic of you and me with the Tanked crew!
As Myka said, LED's were the main focus of every 2nd booth. Some I'd heard of and many I had not. If nothing else, all that focus on the product will make the manufacturers we are used to hearing from work a little harder.
Like Myka, I came away with lots of goodies from the show. I actually won an AGE tank during the final raffle, but sold it on-site as I just couldn't see how to get it home. The corals I picked up all seem to be doing well too...but the bags leaked when customs must have roughed them up a bit. Thankfully they were all Zoas who can handle just being damp for a while.
This was my 2nd MACNA in a row and after seeing how amazing next year looks, I'm pretty sure I will be there too! One thing to note is that ChingChai whose tank seems to be famous all over the world will be a keynote speaker next year! Check it out.
