I am extremely pleased to announce that at the upcoming CRASE conference we will have two of the most well known names in captive reef and marine aquaria husbandry speaking.

It is with great pleasure that I can tell you that Dr Ron Shimek and Steve Tyree will be joining us and presenting talks.

I am sure you will agree that these speakers and the information and experience they will bring to Oklahoma will make the CRASE a truly great event.

Please remember, we are limited to numbers that can attend due to venue size so please consider obtaining tickets early.

All details can be found on the CRASE site at

Regards,

Paul.
 
Dr Ron Shimek

Dr Ron Shimek will present a talk on the "Flora and Fauna of Deep Sand Beds, and the use of DSBs in Captive Systems". Dr. Shimek is internationally known for his studies on marine invertebrates and has published over 20 peer reviewed scientific articles. In addition he has authored several books realting to the marine aquaria. His book, Marine Invertebrates is a must have for anyone setting up, or owning a marine aquarium.



Steve Tyree

Steve Tyree will be presenting a talk at the CRASE. Mr. Tyree is internationally known for his work relating to SPS species of corals and owns and operates Reeffarmers -a distribution site for captive farmed corals. Steve has been farming and distributing captive stony corals since 1993. Back then, the captive maintainance of reef building stony corals was still considered impossible by many. Today there are literally thousands of reef aquarist around the world that are not only maintaining these corals but they are successfully farming them. Over the years Steve has managed to acquire a large collection of rare and exotic corals.


In addition I will also be talking on "Fragging corals for fun and profit." This talk will cover some of the aspects of growing fragments of corals and selling or trading them with other hobbyists and local stores. The talk will include cost effective strategies, elimination of parasites and how best to prepare, grow and present frags of various coral species. After this talk there will be several coral frag demonstrations throughout the day where you can get your fingers wet, make frags of corals and mount them to frag rocks and disks. You will also be able to purchase the frags you have made at a minimal cost.

I can't wait :D THANK YOU Aquariums and COMAS for putting this together. (As well as anyone else involved!) You guys are my heros.
 
I will bring 50 or so....that should be a good start.

They are $10 each for adults,
$7.50 under 14 years old.

Would it be possible to offer some pre-purchase tickets at one of the upcomfing OMAS meetings in Tulsa? There seems to be a number of "dual membership" folks who are members at both COMAS and OMAS who might be able to proxy the tickets to a meeting here. Hate to have to go through the paypal route for one ticket. I'm pretty sure there will be quite a bit of interest from Tulsa folks to head down, I know I'm going to look at the potential of organizing a carpool that day to bring down a car load of folks.
 
I had them with me and made the announcement at the last Tulsa meeting. So, I guess the answer is yes. I plan on attending the next OMAS meeting as well.
 
Sorry, missed the last meeting. But I'll hopefully make the next. I should have known that someone would have already had this covered. I guess this is what I get for missing a meeting. It won't happen again, I promise...
