Thanks Travis,
If anyone has any questions about this event, please post them here and I'll update every other day or so. This is going to be a tremendous event and not one you will want to miss! Make a mini vacation out of it and come to Southern California for the weekend. This is something you can afford to bring the entire family to. (less than a hundred bucks a night and upto 5 persons at the Holiday Inn, CostaMesa; you just can't beat that!)

If anyone would like to exhibit at Marine Aquarium Expo, please contact me as there are still some booths available for rent. A 10'x10' booth for both days (including all electricity, pipe-n-drape, table(s), chairs, even saltwater) is only $800 if booked before January 1. The promotional benefits are incredible considering the 3,000 anticipated attendees that will be there.

Just as important (if not more) don't forget this is also an opportunity to develope close personal contacts with 100 other manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers, etc. in a "closed-to-the-public" setup day on Friday April 4.
