RAP was really cool and I had a lot of fun and it was nice meeting other reefers, but here are some things that I need to get off my chest that really bothered me at RAP and I'd like to hear your complaints as well.
Ok #1
That guy who won like 4 skimmers at the raffles!!!! He was a vendor who owned a store near sacramento!!!! Aghhhhhh!!!! I wanted the bm 160 so bad and I totally thought I was going to win because i put a bunch of tickets in and they clearly didn't shake the jugs because he put his tickets in at the very end and clearly it paid off. Also that guy was so smug and pompous I wanted to vomit on him (oh and if you are him and you are reading this, have fun driving back up to sacramento!). I don't think vendors should be allowed to buy raffle tickets. It's not fair and also it doesn't make sense. He is just going to resell it at his store (he told me so) and if I had gotten it I would be able to set up my new tank and buy more corals thus supporting the reef community! Grrrrrr... and he was so smug about winning and bragged about winning another raffle somewhere else. Cheating anyone? OK well that's enough of him.

That guy who wouldn't go lower on those true steve tyree watermelon echinos. $250 for a less than half inch frag that didn't have any eyes?!!!! I wanted that so badly but his price was way too high especially for a frag convention. And he said he was the one who supplied it to Steve Tyree and I told them that Atlantis was selling them for $150 a while back and he said that they were lying because Ming still wanted to buy a frag from him. Anyway, that guy irks me and his tank isn't even that nice.

Lot's of hot girls there, which was surprising. Why is this bad? I think most of them were there with their boyfriends or husbands. What I want? A girl who loves corals and reef aquariums! What I get? Jack.

Duncans and micros were so cheap there!!! Why didn't I wait?
On the upside, I got to meet a lot of vendors and I got some wicked macroalgae. Oh and I was hoping to meet some RCers there which I did but I was wondering. Who went? What did you look like? I just want to know who I saw there. I was the asian kid with red hair. It's nice to see you all.
