We had a booth at three major events last year: Marine Aquarium Expo, Mountain West Reef Fest, and Reefapalooza. That allowed us to meet many of you addicts in person, and while we were there we filmed many of the interviews you've seen with a number of vendors. Brand new items coming to market were revealed during some of those sessions. We also recorded a number of clips at MACNA in Orlando.
The site was moved to a new server out of necessity, so for a week R.A. was in limbo. We hope that won't happen again because we don't want to miss contact with you even momentarily.
As each of the holidays rolled around, Jessy created the visuals for the top of the site to keep things fun and topical.
We want to thank all our sponsors that supported Reef Addicts: Ecotech Marine, Reefkoi, Marineland, Instant Ocean, Reefapalooza, Creative Soup, Reef2Reef, Marine Aquarium Expo and by default Melev's Reef.
What does 2011 hold? More articles, more podcasts, more features, more contests, and more fun!
