    I am not sure about the ones in the raffle pic. But the biggest rimless there was made by Reef Savvy and it was 8'x3'x24". I about died.


    Thanks all. 8) I did have fun. Sunday I got to run around a bit and hit the beach and get some nice food. I squeaked a little in on the other days too. Hard to resist there. :)



    Look forward to hanging out. :)

    So, could my regional reef club- WisconReefSociety- put in a bid for hosting MACNA in Milwaukee?

    Thanks for the great pics Matt, and Vinny too right?

    Loved the pictures Matt! Thank you so much for sharing on the site. Now, here is a silly question.....what does MACNA stand for? I'm thinking marine aquarium conference...??

    Boy, it sure is tempting about Colorado. I've never been...hmmm........

    Great pictures Matt, although I have no idea how I didn't run into you on the show floor at some point (just in the evenings).

    And it was 1" glass with a PVC bottom. I can't imagine moving it around.

    It's an involved process, but yes. The club must be MASNA recognized and meet a host of criteria. And the bidding process is at least 2 year out. The location for 2015 is about to be locked in.

    MACNA = Marine Aquarium Conference of North America
    MASNA = Marine Aquarium Society of North America

    A MASNA chapter hosts MACNA annually.
