    So I made down to the RAP show today and just got back a little while ago. Great show, I am sure those that attended would say the same thing. I came home with 3 new clams from the show, and a nice sized sps colony. Prices were reasonable and there were lots of frags. There were some beautiful clams for sale from a few booths as well.
    I also picked up a really nice large Derasa from Atticus818 for a great price on my way home, and he tossed in a few frags as well. Thanks, I willl pass some those on to members of the local club, no charge. It was great meeting you.
    I will post pics as soon as I get my camera back, probably tomorrow afternoon.

    Actually there was live music. They actually had a stage outside near the front door with a rock band. Nice touch there SCMAS. That reef club can put on a show. Weather didn't co-operate with that as it was raining when I got there but the band played on. :)

    I went today as well, it was great. If you stay till the end all of the booths give even better deals because they dont want to take the stuff home with them. Got 6 nice zoa frags for 30 bucks and a huge torch coral for 40.
