     Well I'm home from the fest and got the frags in the tank till Sunday when I can rearrange everything to suit the corals better.
    All I can say about the fall fest is OMG!!! I had a great time, shopping, visiting,SHOPPING, meeting new people,SHOPPING! I came home with 25 new corals.Lots of rare and pretty zoa's that I would never find in Des Moines shops.I even got blue palys. Made my day, week and month. :)
       Great diversity of corals.Even though I'm just getting into hard stony corals, The variety of soft corals was amazing.You guys(and gals) :) really know how to keep a guy like me happy!
      Great job everyone!!! KUDOS all around!
       And Supply reps... great job! I got a lot of items and ideas today.Ya dun good!

    Just got home and getting the frags back up to temp before i put them back in the system.  All i can say is to all involved you guys did one hell of a job and the turnout was excellent.  I think it was beyond anyone's expectations.  I was really glad to be a part of it i myself got some very nice pieces!!!!  I am glad the swaps are over for a while, for my sake and for the corals sake.

    Just want to say my thanks to the people that put this together. Had a great time, seen may beautiful corals, and spent way too much money. Can't wait to do it again next year.

    I echo Anna's remarks and want to add a special thanks to the sponsors for the great raffle prizes, the vendors for a great variety of corals, food and merchandise and to the current club members who spent the hours putting it all together. I won a couple of nice raffle items including some foods that I can see are already going to become a regular for my tanks. The corals and fish really go wild when they got a break from flake and frozen brine shrimp. My biggest win was getting to meet and join a great club. Hope the raffle tickets I bought help cover the costs of holding the fest because I would love to attend another.
    Thanks again. Carl
