Only a couple more days to go. This is going to be fun!!

Here are some of the items that REED Mariculture is donating for the event:

Tigger Pods
Marine Rotifers Brachionus
Oyster-Feast - 6 oz bottle
Arcti-Pods - 6 oz bottle
Phyto-Feast Concentrate 6 oz
Roti-Feast 6 oz
Fuzzy-Phyte
Rotifer Diet (5% dry weight)
AquaThrive Nourish, .5mm
AquaThrive Nourish, 1.0mm
AquaThrive Nourish, 1.5mm

These items will be given away as door prizes. Depending on how many people attend, there should be something for everyone!

A big Thank You to everyone at REED Mariculture and Reef Nutrition! :big_grin:

A few other pieces of information to go along with the event:

There are multiples of most door prize items but they will go first come first serve ( 1 per person ) so that we don't have to deal with a drawing on Saturday.

Checkin will start about 12:30 so we can get started with the program right at 1pm.

MASM will also be presenting our first round of trophies for MBI Participants at this event.

For those that have been to Cranbrook before you will need to go the Main Entrance and not the West Entrance that you have gone to in the past for the swap and conference. The people at the front desk will point you to the auditorium for the workshop.

Just a huge thank you to MP and Witt, Blue fish Aquarium, Reed, MASNA, The MASM crew, and especially everyone that attended this event in making it such a huge success and hopefully the first of many like it. I'm happy to see so many people had a good time and learned a great deal and hope to see more and more people get involved in captive breeding in the near future.

WOW! What a great event!

I want to thank everyone that showed up from all over, we had an excellent turn out! It was nice to see regular members and meet some new people that came from other states.

The presentations by both Matts inspired and educated everyone to keep raising the bar of captive breeding. I think that everyone that attended came away with some piece of information that they didn't come with.

Thank you to MASNA and REED Mariculture for supporting this event! Hopefully more clubs around the country take advantage of this Great program.

Thanks as well to Blue Fish Aquarium of Grand Rapids for donating beverages for everyone that attended.

Also a big thank you to Cranbrook for providing us with such a great venue for this event. Thanks Mike!

Most of all, a HUGE thank you to Matt Wittenrich and Matt Pedersen for taking the time to speak for us at the Workshop as well as helping us with the MBI program. We couldn't have done it without you guys! You two have really made a huge impact on everyone.

Now let's breed some fish!
