Great job by the Atlantis group and Russell from Ocean's Blend. I was very impresssed that everyone there walked out with a door prize and giving that tank away as the Grand Prize was outstanding. That went above and beyond  . I hope it was a beneficial meeting for Atlantis. I know I came home with two awesome frags...  ....I'll be posting pictures in the near future.

Thanks John, Robert, Troy and Patrick. You guys are great!
I always learn something at every meeting. What a great opportunity to meet others with the same obsession and to learn from their experiences. Thanks to everyone for letting a rookie pick your brains.

Thank you Atlantis for hosting our meeting!! It was nice to meet everyone again and see some new faces. A few up from Orlando too. Very surprising with the number of door prizes. Nice ones too! Who won the tank? I missed that part...was having my corals bagged. I think we had a very good turnout. Thanks again!

A big thanks to you John (and your employees) for hosting such a great meeting. You really went above and beyond with the giveaways of frags and drygoods, I think just about everyone walked away with something. I was glad to see that we had a pretty good turn out at the meeting. Also a big thanks to Russell from Ocean's Blend for taking the time to come up to Jax to give a great presentation about calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium. Thanks again John we at NFMAS appreciate all of your support.

John, What can I say.....You really out did yourself on this one. Great job and thank you for all the time, effort and money you put into making this one of the meetings I won't soon forget.
It was incredible that you made sure everyone got a door prize and the tank giveaway was outstanding. Your selection was also top notch and you, your staff and all of the guests were top notch!
Everyone was very pleasent and easy to talk to. I enjoyed meeting new people and seeing familer faces too.
Thank you Russell for the presentation and taking the time to give it to us.
Now to go see if my incredible Chip's Acro and my beautiful Scott's Fairy wrasse look as good this morning in my tank as they did in your display!
I hope that in 2 months I can do half as well when the meeting comes to our store.

Sorry Danny
OOOOOPS! Sorry I forgot to mention "OUR ADOPTED KID" Danny. Thanks for helping out "SON". Danny is fairly new to the hobby, started hanging around the store, with a hand held sign that read " WILL WORK FOR FISH & CORALS", so we put him to work. lol

Your fish may eat mine, but you have to get by two 140 lbs Rotties just to get inside. Then you have to make it by two Yorkies.......lol Then there's "Bamufu"

Mecold and Pat - Thanks for the frags!
Reefneck and Mecold - I got a Chip's acro too. It's under a 400watt 10K XM. I'm wondering how the colors will look in about a month. Maybe we can compare around that time.

Sounds like a plan.
I have mine up high and directly under a 10K 150W HQI.
