The Michigan Coral Expo & Swap (aka Lansing Swap) will be on February 16, 2014.
MCES is the largest reef event in Michigan. The 7th annual event promises to be even better this year. Last year, MCES brought together nearly 700 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!

Put me down for a table! I can't wait, this expo is a blast.
I'm confused maybe u can help. This is the first year I have wanted to sell corals at the swap. So I would have to get a 50$ table and do a donation item for the raffle or r their other options for captive reef members? I remember there here empty tables last year for people to sell pre sale items. Just trying to get things figured out before the swap. I have so many frags to get rid of. Any info would be helpful.

Jim just answered for me Lol. Your best bet is a table. Or carry a cooler and sell a few frags. If you have any mode questions let me know!
Hi, I am fairly new to saltwater and I have never been to a swap. I was thinking about going to this one. Is this only for corals or is there usually fish, shrimp, cuc??

There will be some Fish (Usually Clown Fish) and CUC.
There is also a Guy who has a lot of Dry Goods.
But it is 99.9% Coral.
This is by far hands down the best Swap in Michigan though.
The last one actually had three speakers (Like MACNA) which I have never seen at a Swap before.
I recommend going to all Swaps but this is one that you cannot miss.
