FYI:

This was a pretty successful event and I'm happy to say most of us had a good time

Gave away $225 in giftcards.
Had free pizza at aquatic collection
Scored some awesome corals
Hung out with a bunch of reef nerds.

We had a 10% discount at California Reef Co, but Robert surprised us with a 20% discount at Neptune Aquatics.

Even gave us a private tour of his woodshop where they custom make the stands and the coral grow-out room.
