THE MARINE AQUARIUM EXPO IS COMING TO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST!!!
This is a once in a lifetime event in the Pacific Northwest. They don't hold this event in this area because of the fear of low attendance. But they were talked into it.

“SEAMAX” will take place July 23-24, 2011 at the “Seattle Center” 305 Harrison St., Seattle, WA in the main Exhibit Hall.

SEAMAX will host over 50 different exhibitors comprising of Manufacturers, Distributors, Retailers, and hobbyist sellers in a 20,000 sq. ft. section of the Seattle Center’s main Exhibit Hall.

SEAMAX will also include the famous Children’s FinZone, complete with 8-foot Children’s Touch Tank, Drawings, Games, and other forms of entertainment.

For the adults, a HUGE Grand Raffle will take place during the last hour of both exhibit days, distributing literally thousands of dollars worth of donated goods and livestock from our generous exhibitors and sponsors.

Plenty of great food and beverages will also be available from the Seattle Center’s many restaurants and food catering facilities on the property.

Hours are: Saturday July 23 and Sunday July 24, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM

Admission is: only $25 per Adult, $15 per Senior or Military personnel, and ABSOLUTELY FREE for all kids age 12-years or younger!

Exhibit Booths: will be only $750 per 10’x10’ booth including all pipe-and-drape, 6-foot table, fitted table cloths, and two chairs per booth. Electricity is a $50 per vendor total.

Exhibitor Setup: is set for Friday, July 22, 2011 from 12:00 Noon to 8:00 PM.
Saltwater will be provided by a local vendor (to be determined)

We will add more information as it comes available to us.
THANK YOU again to everyone who helped make this event possible.

Well 6 months at least. And that is enough time too.
Red Sea Max will be there. You can buy a complete enclosed system from them while your there! I like the one I have.

Doza 2011-01-31, 14:45

wow im lost in time.. lol thanks

humsuplou 2011-01-31, 14:49

I wish I have a couple more credit cards... Laughing

Doza 2011-01-31, 14:53

just start with a nano.. If i start and do just corals i was thinking like a 20 long even tho i dont know how great it would be having such a short tank with sps.. I figure it would out grow the tank very shortly and start growing out of the water.

i like the look of the short tanks and the fact that lighting would be alot easier with it as well tho..

**CrashSmAshley** 2011-02-05, 15:30

WHAT?! This is gonna be so big. It's about time the NW gets something interesting lol!

lilfishie 2011-05-01, 00:58

I'll be working the Greater Seattle Aquarium Society booth on Sunday. See everyone there.

fishloverRon 2011-07-16, 14:34

Great idea, Cory. I'll Copy-Cat you!!! Laughing

I'll be working the GSAS booth there on Saturday. Please come up and introduce yourselves!

lilfishie 2011-07-17, 01:59

I'll be there saturday.
I'll stop by and say hi.

fishloverRon 2011-07-17, 02:34

Great! I'm looking forward to meeting you.

**Betty** 2011-07-23, 10:22

Today is the day. I'm going to try to make it out, even though I don't keep saltwater. I'm sure there's still lots that can apply to freshwater as well. Dr. Tim's presentation should be interesting.

fishloverRon 2011-07-23, 10:31

Hope to meet a bunch of you at SeaMax today. Stop by the GSAS booth.
Ron

lilfishie 2011-07-23, 10:54

I'm on my way... so excited. Very Happy

Hope to meet a few of the members there.
Enjoy your day, its going to be a beautiful one.

censeoflife 2011-07-23, 13:26

Im leavin now. Whoot!

Adonijah 2011-07-23, 14:03

Ima show up for the last leg of the event today to get in on that raffle.

fishloverRon 2011-07-24, 11:29

Good Show! Lots of stuff there. I'm not a saltie, but there were a lot of people staying much of the day making many rounds of the booths. I think the entry fee was a little stiff at $25, but from what I could see and hear, there were bargains to be had. PSAS is there along with PNWAS. They were on either side of our GSAS booth.

If you go, be sure to check out CPR's booth for their new filtration systems, and Dr. Tim's booth with the bacteria starts!!

Ron

lilfishie 2011-07-24, 20:55

It was a good show. Wish I could have gone again today. I bet the deals were great. Good to meet you Ron... although briefly. I was a little overwelmed. So much livestock Very Happy

Pleco_Party 2011-07-25, 00:12

Yea wanted to go, But I would have had to pay for me and someone else. So I think the entry fee would have cancelled out the money I would have saved on product. Hope they do it again.

fishloverRon 2011-07-25, 13:42

Good to meet you too, Lilfishie! See you at the next event, whatever that may be!!!

**Betty** 2011-07-25, 17:34

I was there for a large part of Saturday, but I didn't know who to look for. I might have seen you all and didn't even know it. At the GSAS booth, I talked to Steve a little about his awesome little planted tank.
