Dana Riddle, ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œTide Pools of Kahaluââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢u Hawaii. What they tell us about Reef Aquariaââ"šÂ¬Ã‚Â
Zack Schwartz, ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œK-12 Education and the Science Behind itââ"šÂ¬Ã‚Â
Walt Smith (Banquet Speaker), ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œThe Life and Death of a Coral Reefââ"šÂ¬Ã‚Â
Julian Sprung ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œInvasive Speciesââ"šÂ¬Ã‚Â
Eric, Anthony and Steven will also conduct Coral Propagation Workshops, sponsored by FRAGExchange.com. And the FRAGExchange booth will be giving away frags all weekend long at their booth.
Registration is just $149 and along with special hotel rates of $109/nite, IMAC is the least expensive weekend conference you can attend. But, to make it even a better deal, especially for reef societies, for a limited time we are offering a special 2 for 1 rate. Thatââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢s right you can get 2 full registrations, including the Speakers, Banquet, Trade Show and the Big Raffle for $149. This is NOT mentioned on the IMAC website www.theimac.org but if you click on the Registration picture there is a space marked ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œAdditional Namesââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ right under the ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œAdd to Cartââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ button where you can enter the name and email address of your guest.
You will both get full registrations, including Banquet. This offer is for new registrations only and cannot be combined with any other discounts. Then you can split the cost with your guest, so it will only cost you $74.50 each. NOTE: If you have clicked on the ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œAdd to Cartââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ button before, the page that shows up may indicate 2 or 3 registrations. This is because your browser remembers that you have been there before and it will add another one. Just check the ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œremoveââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ button, ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œupdate cartââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ and start over.
We are also having a raffle to give away a free registration to IMAC. Just visit the IMAC site www.theimac.org and click on Forum in the upper right. Then scroll down to the ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œFree IMAC Registrationââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ forum and make a post. You will have to register first so we will have your email address and can notify you if you win.
Because of the way we are staggering speakers, although we are using 2 speaker rooms, you can actually see ALL the speakers; you do not have to make choices of who you want to see.
There are just a few spots still open for the ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œbehind-the-scenesââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ tour of the Shedd Aquarium. Their new Wild Reef exhibit is now complete.
We are just getting in products donated by major companies for the Big Raffle but we already have the Grand Prize. It is a 9 day trip for 2 to Fiji donated by Walt Smith International. Other prizes include a fully-equipped 76 gallon tank from Oceanic Systems and a double MH light from Coralife. And, so far we have 5 livestock dealers exhibiting!
So hurry over to www.theimac.org and sign up. Weââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢ll see you in April.
Cheers,
Dennis Gallagher, Chairman

Martin Moe at IMAC?
Martin Moe at IMAC?
Hi Morgman;
Martin Moe was scheduled to speak at IMAC this year, but he sent me an email saying that the hurricane destroyed his "fish house". He tried to get it rebuilt, but the contractors were too slow in rebuilding it.
He was going to speak about some research he was doing in there. He kept trying to make up the time lost but, in January, he finally told me that it just wasn't going to work.
Sorry,
Dennis
