It’s the most wonderful time of the year… the North East Reef Aquarium Conference or better known as NERAC! That’s right, folks! Coming up this Saturday, March 21st is NERAC IX, home of some of the greatest memories you could ever have. This year is going to be EPIC, thanks to all the hard work of the Long Island Reef Association! As usual NERAC will take place at the Long Island Aquarium and Exhibition Center, home to the mother of all reef tanks.

This year there are going to be some mind blowing speakers; Jamie Craggs; Dr. Sanjay Joshi; Richard Ross; Jake Adams

-With Special Guest Mark Callahan aka Mr. Saltwater tank will be in attendance to document this epic event. But that’s not all; he will also be raffling off a sweet prize! To find out more about Mr. Saltwater Tank’s contest follow this link: http://www.mrsaltwatertank.com/bringyourtank/

After feeding your brain, you can feed your stomach with a delicious lunch catered by the staff of Atlantis Banquets and Events.

Alongside this already brilliant event, will be some fin-tastic vendors providing you with any dry goods or frags you could ever want.

Along with Mark’s contest there are plenty of other amazing items that will be raffled off. I’ve seen some of the sweet raffle prizes and trust me…you will want at least 50 tickets.

If all of that wasn’t enough to convince you to drop all of your plans for next Saturday and get the frag out here, there is an elegantly catered dinner with an open bar! Have you ever wanted to sit and have dinner at an aquarium? Well here is your chance. Also did I mention there’s an open bar?!
