    I left with over 40 frags...most of which were impulse buys the last hour of frag fast....the 10.00 specials were too hard to pass up and my husband didn't say a single word about it considering all the receipts were being sent to our home email address. Soe of teh venders even threw in extra which was really nice! I was also helping a vendor take down his tanks and he gave me 10 ocellaris just for helping him. The only thing I won at raffle was an ora frag but I got the one that I really wanted from that tank so it was great. I was also walking by two little fishies and the lady there asked me if I wanted everything on the table because she didn't want to ship it back. All this, besides all the stuff that everyone was giving away.....INCREDIBLE!

    Thanks everyone for putting on a great show!!!

    Well, I got a whole bunch of free stuff like everyone else during the show and 2 frags and a magazine subscription in the raffle, but moved the Smouse tank so I didn't get in on any good deals for helping vendors move out, since they were all out by the time I got there. Plus I never did pick up my combo pack from Rod's Food that I won (well, my son won) in the fishing thingy. Anyone know the name and contact info for the guy running the Rod's Food booth? I talked to him about picking it up before they packed up, but never got back there in time.

    I did not get the one thing I wanted more than anything else /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/sad.gif I wanted one of those marineland LED's for my upcoming 15 gal build

    I am happy with what I got, but I still REALLY wanted one of those.

    I ended up taking home the 120 tank. The guy that won it was from North Carolina and he didn't know how he was going to get it out of there or ship it so he sold it. I had not planned on buying a stand, tank, glass cover and hood. That was a surprise to me. I bought a smaller ceramic frag rack that looks like a rock with plugs in it, thought I would give it a try. I also took home a cool clam, a dendro, and yellow and orange ricordia that were half off on Sunday. Plus all the great MACNA freebies!

    In addition to the tons of freebies, 9 frags, and 1 Maxima Clam, we found a hitch-hiker... but a good one.  When we got home we found a Yellow Maxi-mini Anemone hiding on the side of the rock one of our new frags is on!  At MACNA, we asked multiple vendors (including the one that sold us this frag) if they had any Maxi-mini's, but they all said they were either out or didn't bring any.  We're not complaining about this hitch-hiker! /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/w00t.gif
