It was a real pleasure to meet you and to chat for a few minutes.  I quite enjoyed your first presentation.  Unfortunately, I was unable to remain for your second one.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge and expertise with us.

I have to say as well that it was a privilege to meet you Albert and to be able to ask you some questions. You have such a wealth of knowledge and experience and it was the highlight of the show for me. I really hope to see you again next year! Have to put some pressure on Stuart.  ;)

     I was so disappointed I didn't get to meet you!  I had intended on taking in your nano tank session in the AM, but I didn't get to Aquamania until after 2pm on Saturday, and I didn't see you, and couldn't stay for your later talk.   :(     

     However, I DID buy my first tank there, (the 28 gallon CAD Lights David had on display), and I am very excited to start!  I will be referencing your e-book quite a bit, I'm sure.  It's fantastic!    :)

Sorry we could not meet but you did make a real good buy. I know exactly which tank you bought, as I looked at it myself several times, and was impressed with its built etc ....

You will find most of what I discussed my talks in the book so you will still get the benefit of all of the information. I may have covered some addl material during the talks but the "meat" of what you need to know is definitely in the book.

Happy reef keeping and if you have questions for me just post them in the thread here and if I can answer them I certainly will, and with pleasure.

Yes, I believe that tank was MEANT for me!  I was indecisive for so long regarding which size tank to begin with, and I wanted an all-in-one....then I found out about the CAD 28, and I knew it was the one for me!  It was out of stock, and I would have had to wait at least a month or 2 before mine would arrive, and then David found THIS one at a private sale, still in the box!  So the reduced price really helped my starter budget!  It's big enough to have lots of room to grow, and the size isn't too overwhelming for me......

   I'm sure I will be asking questions as I go!  I love your threads  :-)
Take care!

Happy reef keeping
