Hey I have a quick question for all u vendors, how are you going to post your pricing? Are you going to write it on the glass? On an empty frag plug , piece of PVC, or something like that? Or just verbally tell everyone ?

I went looking for a glow-in-the-dark wax pencil thing, but couldn't' find anything, so might just print up little price stickers.

Toys r Us sells neon crayons for use on glass

The dry erase ones work well too... My son used them all over our patio door a couple weeks ago :/ They wipe off great!

The crayola window ones work really well on glass. I have a pack of the "bright" dry erase crayons at home... At work till 7pm tonight but I will test them on my patio door when I get home and let you know how well they show up.
Tempra paints work well, you can get them in all sorts of different colours at Michaels, ToysRUs and Chapters.
Also things to look for are wet erase markers - but they are pricy, 5 for $26.00 at Staples (whose website is currently being a PITA so I didn't link it: http://www.amazon.ca/Expo-Wet-Erase-Fluorescent-Markers-SAN14075/dp/B004E3K086

Remember they are in a dark dark room lit by only the lights on the tank...what works well in a window may not work well in a closet with a uv light
I misses toys r us today, going to go there and the dollar store, and the party supply place on wed.

The expensive wet erase ones say they glow under UV and black light
Window writers glow nice, but run when wet. Dry erase comes off plexi easy.And the winner, get the tags they sell for your garden. Cut the stem down, and BOOM, instant price tags, and they fit in egg crate.

Yeah I'd be grinning ear to ear if I was half the age I am now. Damn you young people
Except for collapsing the table and your questionable chineese discount lighting, your display was top notch. We'll work out the kinks for next year padawan.

My setup was pretty ghetto in comparison. I just noticed you had a nice table covering too... Dang you thought of everything.

HAHAHAHA! You had the attention of EVERYONE! You know your coral is the shit, you bastard. I actually can't believe you had that stuff in a tupperware bin
You and me, we'll confide before the next event. You want me to be brutally honest?? Your display was a 5/10, but our corals were a 15/10. IF you had the -over-the-top- lighting, you would have been the star of the show (which I'm not so sure you weren't). Your corals outperformed your lighting setup. However, your colonies are world class, and hopefully you can accept that I say that sincerely and not as a kissass. (Dammit 8 people told my wife at the door that I am a complete asshole, hopefully you can believe I'm at least sincere!)
When you're in London, come by for a beer. Whatever your brand, I'll keep it in stock, you showoffsonofabitch.

Not bad for almost 45 eh?
1 wife and 4 kids later. I tell you, the only thing that gets me through the day is looking at my facebook highschool friends and how bald they are. Hey I see you are receding there, no? ;D
Oh I kid, I should be easy on you as a leaf fan. Good lord boy, cut your losses (like I never did) and come over to the gold side. I will welcome you, even if I despise you for your youth. I[m going to post that pic of me with hair to my ass and a 28" waist that I use to prop my tank hood open with...as a warning to you!
