The Michigan Coral Expo & Swap (aka Lansing Swap) will be on February 19, 2017.
MCES is the largest reef event in Michigan...now in its 11th year! The event is hosted by two clubs...The Mid-Michigan Marine Club and Grand Rapids Marine Aquarium Society. Both clubs are busy making preparations and working on speakers and raffle to make it even better. Last year, MCES brought together over 950 hobbyists from around the state and upper midwest with 50 vendors from across the country. If you are a reef keeper in the midwest, you do not want to miss this event!
Date: February 19, 2017
Where: Causeway Bay Hotel and Convention Center (formerly Best Western)
6820 South Cedar Street
Lansing, MI 48911
Admission is $10 per person (kids under 16 are free)
The tentative itinerary for the 2017 Michigan Coral Expo & Swap is as follows (raffle times to be announced):
10:00: Admission for morning speaker session

If you have Never Been to a Frag Swap Before Check out this Video from a previous swap to get an idea of all the fun that you will have.
Vendors from around the country come to sell coral (much of which are the amazing corals that you see online not the bland common stuff that you see at your LFS - Local Fish Store).
It is also a great way to meet old friends and make new friends that are in the hobby.
You will find the hottest Zoanthids, Acros, Acans, Chalices, etc. all at great prices!
