    One thing I thought would be cool Matt was if we had a sump building demo and then raffled off the sump. It was something I considered for fall fest but was never got around to getting input for.

    Where is Spring Fest at this year? This whole sump building thing sounds fun! Maybe we could get Turbo (Bud) to help us out.

    Cool....time to start planning for more room in the tank. The sump builder sounds like a GREAT idea.

    Does anyone besides me have any interest in hearing about NPS coral systems?

    I'll do something regarding sump building or working with acrylic. I'm not 100% sure I will be able to actually do a build from beginning to end and have it ready to move, but I'll figure something out.

    And +1 on NPS

    I also like the idea of having kevin speak on expert only fish
    how does this sound to everyone
    try to get kevin to talk about expert only fish
    another speaker to talk about NPS systems not sure who but maybe randy reed
    and bud has agreed to do 1 or more demos on sump desgin and building

    If the sump demo was a go Matt, it would probably be best to use glass as that is what most your DIY people will be using. Otherwise I think your topics will be a big hit, but I would look for someone other then randy since he was just at fall fest.

    Gary Parr did NPS at MACNA & was a pretty big hit.

    good point mike about randy being at fall fest also i think bud will focus on sump design mainly because acrylic solvent has to dry for 2 hours on each seam before it can be moved plus i think his is going to be more of an informal type demo at a table off to the side with a few chairs for people to sit at
    craig i forgot about gary he would be great

    so how does this sound
    kevin kohan talking about expert only fish
    gary parr on nps systems
