Fragtoberfest oct 5 2013 bloomington il interstate center

You mean the big guy....higher power.......or John & Sissy, We have been told that Seachem and a couple others will be sending something but nothing has appeared yet.

I was just referring to some of the larger vendors who sell more... designer corals per say.
 
Jason Fox was with us last year but we had to move our date by a week which caused him to cancel for this year but indicated he would be interested in 2014. We sold out of space this year by June 1 , but if this goes as anticipated we are considering doubling the space we rent next year. I felt bad because I had to turn down Inland Aquatics and several others I would have loved to have as vendors for the variety they offered. Hopefully next year we will expand and they will still be interested. Uncle Carl
 
Sorry for the noob question but is this like a, for lack of better term, swap meet? Could someone help me out here?

Incentive

Grand Raffle Prize - 1 winner - 2Aqua Illuminations AI HYDRA Modular LED Lights with a controller – Donated by BNARC
 
It'll be mostly hobbyists selling, so no discounts per say, but the prices will be low enough that you'll end up spending more than you had budgeted by a wide margin and you'll need an extra Styrofoam cooler to hold your plunder. I love frag swaps. :)
