Swap Update!

[crumbletop]

Just an update for all you MTRCers regarding the planning for our annual Frag Swap in January. I have been working to get a nationally known reef expert to come in for the swap and give a presentation or two. I am very pleased to announce that Dr. Ron Shimek will be coming to Nashville and will be presenting at our 4th annual Frag Swap!

Ryan... there's a 500 for sale on the board

Wish I had 2K and a house where a tank that big wouldn't fill 3/4 of the living room.

Sorry for the :uzi:

Thanks! Yeah, I'm pretty excited about how things are unfolding for the swap. There is still a lot to do, but we have a great core team working on it. More will be posted as we move further along with the planning.

Gary left us a great legacy and some big shoes to fill!

I read so much of his stuff when I first got into reefing! I quoted him a lot also to people asking about deep sand beds. He is the reason I run one and I just like the look of sand. I am sure he will pull lots of people so we would need a big location.
