Hey Come to the Last IMAC !

[degall]

Hi All;

Since the special for IMAC expired at the end of March, we came up with another one especially for clubs. For everyone who registers at the regular rate, you can bring up to 3 people who get full registrations just for the price of a Banquet ticket.

Since this will be the last IMAC, I would like to make it a big one so this will be the last big special we will offer. This may be the last big aquarium conference near you in quite a while so hurry over to International Marine Aquarium Conference (IMAC) - Main Index and sign up today.

Here are the Speakers:

Dr. Sanjay Joshi: “Reef Lighting”
Dr. Ron Shimek (2 presentations): “Currents & Feeding Corals” and “It’s Not As Bad As We Thought; It Is Far Worse”
Frank Burr: “Self-sustaining Marine Biospheres”
Matt Pedersen: "Fish Breeding"
Scott Fellman: “Marine Biotope Aquariums: Taking Inspirations From Nature”
Adam Cesnales: “Form Meets Function: Designing Your Refugium to Work Harder”
Jake Adams: “Fluid Dynamics for the Reef Aquarium”
John Coppolino: “Rare Angels”
Dr. Adelaide Rhodes: “Frontiers in Fish Growing - Newest Technologies in Aquaculture that can help the Hobbyist”
James Fatheree: “Tridnacnid Clams – Diversity and Lighting Needs”
Tony Vargas: “Tubbataha – Unexpected Paradise”
Tim Hayes : “How to Be A Better Reefkeeper”
Allen LaPointe: “Water Quality Monitoring and Data Interpretation”
Tullio Dell Aquila: “Full Spectrum LED Systems for Aquariums and Aquaculture Use”
Tom Frakes (Banquet Speaker): “Global Warming: Reef Tanks and the World”
Robert “Bob” Fenner: “Mixed Reef Livestocking: Techniques and Approaches for Avoiding & Reducing Allelopathogenic Effects”


Cheers,
Dennis

hey can anybody tell me if they recomend me to go to IMAC, is it worth it??

[DaveK]

These shows are worth going to. You need not get to everyone of them. It is nice to hear the various authors and go to their lectures. I would not recommend trying to purchase livestock at a show, even if you like locally.

Going to one of these shows can be expensive, especially when you figure in transportation, and lodging. Sometimes it's best to go to one that you can drive to, or one where you can stay with friends.

If you don't live too far away, it would be especially good to attend this IMAC, since it will be the last one. Who knows when there will be a MACNA nearby.

And you can buy livestock. They are packed very well and many people have even taken them on planes across country successfully.

The expense is not great, especially compared to what you would spend on several great corals. What you learn at IMAC could avoid you losing them. And IMAC is a lot of fun too.

Cheers,
Dennis
