TMAC Photo Updates

[princer7]

Here are a few photos from the frag tanks while setting up for TMAC. There is some wicked corals. Wish I had time to get photos from all the vendors tonight. Will be bringing the camera back tomorrow. If you are on the fence about going... this is not a show to miss. :bigsmile:

First up... Cherry Corals:

I cannot wait to see their corals fully open up. The rhizoids and acans were insane!!!

Next up, ZoaNuts:

Wow, you just made me smile at 5:30 in the morning! :D

[Mr Cob]

Oh my gosh...I'm so missing out!!! Gorgeous corals. THX so much for sharing!

Nice shots as always.

[Dee]

Beautiful! And I have to miss it to drive 3hrs to Hico, TX to pick up one of my rescue dogs that's being adopted to a family in ****inson. I'm soooo jealous!

Dee

[Gilbertg78228]

that is so beautiful such rich colors!

[brewercm]

Great show guys and to all those who put this together a big thank you for a job well done.

[BioCube14]

more pics!

[JimD]

I wish I could have made this. Severe case of poison oak kept me from attending. Were there many unusual acros?

[gjuarez]

WOW!! Nice pics there.. THe rhizoids are a site to see when they are open, did you by any chance ask for the price? Easily over 300.00 i would imagine. Cherry corals are the real deal, you normally dont see dendro colonies that big. Acan lord galore and many chalices. Had to have had at 10k in inventory. Stunning colors. Great pics once again

[gjuarez]

I hadnt seen the mohawks from zoa nuts, those are very nice too. Man i really missed out...

[brewercm]

BTW, the dendro's were going for I think $10 or $20 a head. Ace picked one up so he might be able to chime in. Great prices on a lot of stuff that was there.

[mama]

Jennifer!! Thank you for the awesome photos as you have MOST of the ones I purchased today!! (only YOU know how much I spent ;-)...I'll let the hubby know in the morning :-(....this was a fantastic event and all of you who put this show on deserve a huge kudos!! BBird and Ms BBird...always a pleasure and see you when you come to NW Austin ;-)

[stoneroller]

Compliments out to everyone! What a great time we all had. Wish I had won some freebies... but alas I have some great corals including a few pieces of the deepwater zoa morphs. Jennifer, any pics of those?? THX

[alasg001]

Seeing the pics makes me wish I called in sick, but that would not look to good considering I just started working at a new hospital. I guess there is still next year, or the internet.

[dannyv]

Had a great time out there, and by the way Kevin thanks for having us over after the event and the hookup! Gotta love the raffel!!!

You'll be hearing for us soon...

Bummer, sorry to hear!

There were A LOT of unusual and nice acros there. I spent waaaay too much today, but at the prices at which I paid, I couldn't pass this stuff up.

I would have liked to taken a few clams from Frank's Tanks and B&B home, along with a few acros from Fish2morrow (SICK ACROS!), a chalice from zoanuts, and an acan from Cherry Corals

(did I cover most everything?) :D

Jennifer & mama...outstanding pics! I see a few of mine too! Thanks for sharing. The colors today were outstanding. I personally have never seen so many beautiful corals in one room before! And Jennifer, thank you for mine too. It's a beauty and much appreciated! :)

[princer7]

I am sooo fried! There were so many nice displays making it very difficult to choose what to get. I'll post more pictures tomorrow. "Thank you" is not enough to those who organized this event. IT WAS AWESOME!

[MRSBIGBIRD123]

Who walked away with that nice pink plate? That was a beauty!
I can't say enough to all who pulled together to make this happen. TEAMWORK IS THE SUCCESS OF EVERYTHING!
Thanks to the BOD, the Volunteers, and DREW. Thanks to Jennifer for documenting the Event on Pics, and to Jeff to Videoing the Presentations, hope to get this added to the library soon. Most of all, thank to the MEMBERS who came out to support the Event. I hope everyone had a great time. (For those who were not able to make it, there is a tentative date scheduled for next year!)

Goes well with their Hawaiian shrimp -I was pretty shakey at this point with the lack of sleep and the need for lunch. Cannot wait to see Anthony's photo of these guys.
