In early April the Marine Aquarium Expo (MAX) was held at the Orange County Fair Grounds in California.

In all the years I have exhibited at or attended consumer events, MAX was the best organized and well managed event of its kind. Not one exhibitor had any wants or needs for anything, from set up to dismantle of their exhibits.

There were over 80 exhibit booths. Exhibitors ranged from Aqua Craft Products®, Reef Aquarium Guide®, Elos®, Hakari®, Jellyaquarium, Eco System Aquarium® (Coral Magazine™), Dirk's Reef all the way from Minnesota, to local coral fraggers and sellers. Over 2000 reef aquarists visited MAX™ during this two day event.
