MACNA 21 is coming to Atlantic City, NJ September 25-27, 2009! We've arranged for rooms in the beautiful Sheraton Atlantic City (they're selling fast though so don't delay), which is connected via walkway to the Convention Center. Folks who fly Spirit Air can fly directly into The Atlantic City International Airport and the Philadelphia International Airport is an easy drive to the hotel. We already have half of our current vendor spaces sold and expect the rest of the booths to move quickly.
There is an $89 discount admission that lets you experience all 3 days of the conference speakers, trade show floor, Friday Night reception, Saturday Night Banquet and Sunday raffles! This discount admission is available through October 31. Be sure to sign up before then for the best price on the full conference passes.
For those who haven't been, MACNA (The Marine Aquarium Conference of North America) is a three day conference for the saltwater enthusiast with more than 20 speakers giving presentations on many aspects of the saltwater aquarium hobby. We have an 83,000sqft trade show space with over 100 booths filled with manufacturers, distributors and coral farmers. MACNA is the oldest saltwater aquarium conference and at last year's conference there were more than 1500 attendees.
With the beaches, boardwalk and Casinos just a 4 block walk from the hotel and ample shopping in between, there is plenty for family and friends to do if they come with you to Atlantic City. Come early, stay long. The Jersey beaches are beautiful in September with warm waters and strong sun still plentiful.
Please use this thread to ask questions you may have and we will be by to answer them. You can also check out our website. www.macnaxxi.com
See you all in Atlantic City!

Hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving! With an eye towards the upcoming holidays, we realize that many folks are just now considering what special gift to get (or put on their list). What else but a pair of tickets to the the largest saltwater aquarium conference?!
For the more than 200 who have signed up already – we do thank you! You (and those of you who have not yet picked up your tickets) might be interested to know some more details of the event.
Our Friday night reception has taken a turn for the entertaining! We know there just isn't enough time in the day for chatting with fellow reefers so we'll spend Friday night networking, chatting and enjoying each other's company. We’ll be bringing in a band with a local start to entertain us – The NERDS (http://www.the-nerds.com/) (sorry, Springstein & Bon Jovi were both already booked). http://www.the-nerds.com/. All along the Jersey Shore they are considered a local legend and truly one of the great cover bands to hit the scene. They have played from Carnagie Hall to the White house and many places in between.
Saturday night's banquet guests will have the pleasure of seeing Mr. John Chatterton, a speaker that I can assure you will find both engaging and entertaining. John Chatterton is one of the world's most accomplished and well-known wreck divers. He is the star of the book Shadow Divers, in which he was instrumental in discovering and identifying a German U-Boat that sank off the coast of new Jersey. He is a co-host for 57 episodes of the popular History Channel series Deep Sea Detectives. He is also a consultant to the film and television industries and has worked with 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures, and CBS. Most recently John worked with a crew solve the 90 year mystery of the true reason for the rapid sinking of the Titanic. More of his bio can be found here (http://www.johnchatterton.com/bio.php):
This event is a truly hobbyist driven event (with over 20 speakers speaking on topics that hobbyists want to hear!). Those who have attended in the past already know that your fish and corals will appreciate all the knowledge (and perhaps prizes) you’ll bring back along with the memories of putting faces to all the Usernames you know from the boards!
Stay tuned for our next installment of MACNA XXI where we'll tell you about the vendors who have signed on so far to make Atlantic City a conference not to miss!

If you've never been to a MACNA before and if you're wondering if this event is for you the answer is a resounding YES! Like our Trade Show & Symposium last October, this event will feature many local and national vendors as well as speakers from around the country! This year's theme focuses on bringing the technique and technology of the pros into the hands of the hobbyists! We're looking forward to many hands on presentations for the attendees.
Things are really ramping up to MACNA XXI. We have the majority of our speakers listed on the SCHEDULE (http://www.macnaxxi.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=33&Itemid=57) and the VENDOR FLOOR (http://www.macnaxxi.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=16&Itemid=41) is filling in quickly with more than 70 vendors listed so far!
In case you didn't hear, Friday night's party will feature headline band The Nerds (http://www.the-nerds.com/) for your entertainment while you socialize with the folks that you haven't seen since last year's MACNA. Saturday night we will enjoy a presentation by John Chatterton (http://www.johnchatterton.com/), subject of the book Shadow Divers and host of the TV show Deep Sea Detectives.
Be sure to buy some raffle tickets at a discount when you register. The big screen TV was such a hot raffle item at New Jersey Reefers Club's AMAZING RAFFLES last year, we will again be raffling off a Super Big Screen TV along with lots of other goodies (both reef and non-reef related). Our vendors have already started the donation list including two really great tank setups. Keep an eye on www.MACNAXXI.com for more information.
The current conference discount expires on May 31 and the prices will go up as a result. Be sure to lock in at the current price as soon as possible (the prices will be $159 come September).
The current prices are:
Full Conference Pass (Includes Fri&Sat Evening Events) : $119

Those who will be staying at the Sheraton Atlantic City (http://www.starwoodmeeting.com/Book/macna09), host hotel of MACNA XXI should reserve their rooms as the block is selling out quickly and there will be no additional availability!

So, You've been hearing a lot about this MACNA XXI (http://www.macnaxxi.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1) thing, right? But you're not too sure what it's all about? To start it's being held in Atlantic City, NJ. September 25th, 26th and 27th. MACNA stands for Marine Aquarium Conference of North America. The name may be misleading to you, maybe you think that this isn't something that you can attend? Well, we're here to tell you that you CAN attend, and if you're an everyday average reefer that's even more of a reason to come! (more to follow on that subject!)
MACNA is a three day event. You may be thinking, what could you possibly do for three days that has to do with your saltwater reef tank? Well, let me tell you! It's a great place to LEARN. There will be some of the industries leading speakers, touching on all sorts of topics that range from water flow, chemistry, aquascaping, water filtering, keeping/breeding ornamental fish and so much more! Now, we also understand that not everyone likes to sit and listen to someone speak. There really is no worry here, you can head on over to the trade show floor. This is where you're probably going to be overwhelmed. (but in a good way...trust us!)
The trade show floor (or the exhibitor area) is where you'll find all of the latest and greatest products for your saltwater reef (or fish!) tank. There are way too many vendors to list, you're probably better off just heading on over to the MACNA XXI (http://www.macnaxxi.com) website and looking at the EXHIBITOR MAP (http://www.macnaxxi.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=16&Itemid=41). If after looking at that you're still not happy, there will also be workshops demonstrating everyday reefing techniques located around the exhibitor hall!
Ok, maybe you would like to bring your spouse or significant other but they really aren't into reefing. Well, a good selling point would be that this years MACNA is being held in Atlantic City, NJ. I'm pretty sure most of you have at least heard of it. There are lots of things to do there during the day (or night) including the beach, boardwalk, casino's, and plenty of shopping. In addition to that, they may also enjoy listening to The Nerds (http://www.the-nerds.com/) (a local NJ band) that will be playing at our Friday night reception. Then at the banquet (yes, a banquet too!) on Saturday night, John Chatterton (http://www.johnchatterton.com/) will be speaking. He is featured in the book Shadow Divers (http://www.robertkurson.com/book.html) and has also been on the History Channels Deep Sea Detectives (http://www.history.com/content/deepseadetectives).
So in a nutshell, you get three days FILLED with Speakers, Vendors, Workshops, Raffle Prizes (yes, those too!) and a chance to meet and hang out with other reefers from around the country! It doesn't get much better than that.
So come on out and visit us in Atlantic City, New Jersey on September 25th, 26th and 27th. You and the family are sure to have a wonderful time!
Visit MACNA XXI (http://www.macnaxxi.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1) for the full details!

And this year, we're hosting MACNA, and well that's like a 3 Day Frag Swap on Steroids. With that in mind, it would be completely wrong of us to do raffles on one day only.

Here is just a teeny tiny, little glimpse of what we have in store (we wouldn't want to tip our hat this early, trust us, there's MUCH more to come!):

Here's a note from one of our MANY exhibitors:
"MACNA is probably one of the most important events of the year. It is a NATIONAL event that is hosted by a different club in the US each year. Reefkeepers in the tri-state area are very lucky that this year it is in New Jersey. It's really a 2 part event, both of which can be extremely valuable to reefkeepers. You'll have manufacturers and the larger vendors from all over the US at this show in the exhibit hall. This is were you can learn about the latest and greatest equipment available for your tanks. You'll be able to talk with online vendors that you usually only deal with via email. This gives you a chance to meet the people behind the scenes.
The second part of MACNA are the speakers. By far this is where you will pick up the most info. I would recommend that you take a look at the list of speakers and topics on the MACNA site make a hit list of the speakers that you want to hear. The workshops are very special in that they are up close and personal. I would highly suggest that you visit at least one workshop each day.
MACNA is also a great way to meet others in forums across the country that you have been involved in. Many forums will have a booth at MACNA and you'll find the more active members of the forums will be hanging around the booth.
If you plan ahead, you'll have plenty of time to walk thru the exhibit hall many times, listen to some speakers and join in the workgroups, making your visit to MACNA a really enlightened experience." -- Brian Griffin, Ocean Gallery Aquatics (http://www.oceangalleryii.com)

Here's another note from one of our MANY exhibitors:
This Friday--Saturday--Sunday--THE EVENT OF THE YEAR
If you are anywhere in the Eastern half of the country the drive to MACNA will be an easy one this year as the event is hosted by the NJ reef club and is located at Atlantic City, NJ. The NJ reefers are masters of hosting such events so this should be one of the very best MACNAs ever!!!!!!!!!
There will be tons of great vendors with every imaginable type of reefkeeping equipment and livestock for you to look at, touch, ask about, and buy. World renowned speakers are lined up to help answer your most detailed questions, entertainment of the finest imaginable, and the shear fact that you will be there with over 1000 fellow hobbyists all with the same goal in mind--learning how to better keep our critters in our personal reefs.
IF YOU ARE A BEGINNER OR ADVANCED HOBBYIST THIS IS THE ONE EVENT YOU MUST ATTEND!!!!!! NO WHERE ELSE WILL YOU BE SURROUNDED BY SO MANY FELLOW HOBBYISTS, LIVESTOCK, AND EQUIPMENT!! Come for the weekend or JUST ONE DAY, it will be well worth your time. While online forums such as this one are great, there is no comparison to actually living reefkeeping live and in person at the grand daddy event of the year--BE THERE!!!!!
Stop by our booth and say Hi!! we will be offering for sale 100+ clams, 1200+ frags, our own unique Pieces Of The Reef, our own exclusive Australian Ultimate Rainbow Acans, and so much more. All at special super low show prices!!!!!!!!!!!! Dr.Mac, www.pacificeastaquaculture.com
Here's the floor plan of where the vendors are going to be. See you at the show!!
