[joesynodontis]

so no one is giving up the secrets haha, but the cash is a great idea.

 

[Nick A]

I think I'll start planning out my list of store to visit first once the doors open, lol

 

[sharkdude]

according to the floor plan, there will be n ATM up front.
also, vendors will have access to wi-fi, so they may be able to process credit cards and paypal.

Can anyone tell me if the Orange County Market Place is like a huge flea market or something? My wife gave me the "thumbs up" to attend, and I'd like to find the rest of the clan an alternative activityso that I can shop and "chat" at my own convenience!!! Do you all think I'll get my fill of "Reef-A-Palooza" in 3 hours? Would the Market Place kepp the fam entertained for that time?? Thanks, and can't wait!!!!!

 

[ReefMeister2]

Yes,
the Orange County Market Place will be in full operation during Reef-A-Palooza, and hence an alternative "attraction" to take the family to in between breaks (and then coming back to RAP later in the day)

This is one of the largest swap-meets in the entire state and something that can take upwards of 2-3 hours to see everything (assuming you go up and down every isle).

There is also a Cat Show going on in building 16 next door. http://www.ocfair.com/ocf/Calendar/...asp?EventId=717

There is also some type of clothing sale across the courtyard in building 12:

We will also have food vendors just outside the building, as well as an ATM inside the building

Lots going on that day, so plan on making an entire day out of it

HERE'S TO ALL OF YOU WHO'VE MADE THIS EVENT POSSIBLE!!! :beer: :celeb3: :celeb2: :celeb1:

 

[pookstreet]

Check out what I made just for this special occasion. Hope my frags will stand out a bit with the black bottom. Just a bit of an improvement over my last ghetto plastic tub at the CFM :lol:

My old display at CFM

My new acrylic display 27"Lx24"Wx11"H

 

[pookstreet]

I went with chamfered edges instead of the traditional rounded ones to give it a bit of a contemporary look

After a bit of buffing action

[JenDub]

sweet Kenny......now everyone is going to be looking at your tank instead of your fantastic frags. If you need to move people on, use a sharp pointy stick.=)

 

[sharkdude]

Pooksters, but ghetto retro chic' is so in!
There goes your bottom line profits!

 

[pookstreet]

Thanks Jen/Charles Stick added to the list.


LOL Chris...........I do still love ghetto chic but changes are good. And oh yeah, the word "profit" is like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for us hobbyists. It's a nice dream but never found. Every cent and more that I have made has been toss back into further "improvements" :lol: I only wished it was that easy to realize a "profit" as everyone seems to think

 

[Onesaltydawg]

Kenny...you did a fantastic job on your frag tank.

 

[pookstreet]

Thanks Daniel. Now if only I can sell the frags.............

 

[ReefMeister2]

All Rise "I hereby officially declare the PooksDisplay as 100% FDA-ISO900-RAP-Certified and Frag-Worthy this thirty-first day of July, two-thousand and seven." :hammer:


You may now cerimoniously break the champagne bottle over the nicely-chamfered corner

[reefkoi]

I'm wanting to attend this event, just need to work the ole lady over You guy's have really got a great event going on it sounds like.
I remember getting really hassled for trying to load a box of corals onto the plane at Houston last year, has anyone flown with corals or fish recently? Have the airlines loosened up any?
Chris.
