    Once again, CTARS will be holding a Conference - the date is Sunday April 25, 2010. Again, it is at The Mohegan Sun Casino. Tickets are available on-line for $15 through December 31, 2009 and parking is FREE. As an added feature this year, you can buy your raffle tickets online as well.

    We have a couple of new speakers scheduled to appear - Chris Clough and Vince Rado. Chris is an LED lighting expert and Vince is a Marine Biologist with 40 years of propagating history. Also speaking will be Sanjay Joshi.
    We had a full room of vendors. Scheduled to be here are Marco Rocks, Cherry Corals, Reef Koi Corals, Seachem and Wet Thumb Frags just to name a few.

    We encourage you to get your tickets early and take advantage of the early bird pricing. They make great XMAS stocking stuffers (in case your significant other is wondering what to get you).

    This is the largest gathering of reef keepers in the Northeast. We hope to see you here.

    Yes, Reef Nutrition will be here. And we have added Bob Fenner to round out our speakers and a host of new vendors.

    As a reminder, the Early Bird pricing expires in just a couple weeks.

    We hope to see you there.

    I wanted to give you an update as to some of the raffle prizes. We will be having a fantastic raffle and coral auction shortly after the last speaker.

    We will be raffling off one of these 24" 2xModule LED Light System w/ Controller at the April 25 Conference:

    Another light that we will raffle off is this one donated from Hamilton Technologies:

    Cayman Sun - 150 Watt HQI Reflector with LED lights.

    Not in the market for a light? How about this pump donated from Echotech Marine:

    Vorech MP10 pump or any of the other dozens of raffle prizes.
