OK it sounds like we won't be getting the tour for free since Matt is gone, however with group rates it'll be $3 a piece for the tour and $10 for admission. Hope that doesn't throw anyone off. I'll be talking with them tomorrow to nail down the details of price

Yeah, sorry guys. I don't have the authority Matt did to show you guys around for free. This is the best I can do in my position. Trust me though, it's still totally worth it! For just a few extra bucks I can personally give you guys a 45 minute tour including our lab, kitchen, and up on deck above the large tanks in addition to the regular aquarium. There are also a lot of cool animals up there you don't get to see in the aquarium.

She's right, I have taken the tour, and it's great. Thanks for all the help Melissa!

I have some good news. First, I have an MFK surprise for everyone that attends. Second, I have determined the raffle prize. We'll be drawing for $60 worth of live stock at World of Fish, on me.

So the winner of the raffle gets to search for the 60 bucks...on you?!

I nominated my arm to a Pima feeding!

If you are seriously wanting to feed the sharks there is a earlier behind the scenes tour at 11:30 where you can sign up to do that. You would have to pay full price though, plus the cost of feeding the sharks. I can't remember off the top of my head how much it is. But if you decide to do that you would not have the pleasure of me giving your tour.

MMM....Make it $75, but has to be on livestock. Plants, fish, corals.

 

[ewurm]

We got in P. Retropinnus, P. Lapradei, Long Fin Senegalus, 2 Temensis, a slew of eels, and some other stuff. Should be some good stock for you guys. PM me if you want my phone number for Saturday.

FYI for everyone going on the behind the scenes tour. I thought I would break it to all of you on here so you will not strangle me tomorrow when I tell you in person. The is a new rule at the aquarium where they don't allow cameras behind the scenes.
But feel free to take as many pictures as you want throught the aquarium.
