Hey Phil,

Great to hear from you. Anything you can do is highly
appreciated! 

Eric Do did a cool talk on shrimp last year. I think
folks really enjoyed it. 

Hopefully we can get something worked out with the ATL
Aquarium. MACNA can do a lot because they have very
deep pockets. I think we have an Atlanta Aquarium
contact through Seachem. Ken Davis told me he may have
one also through an Atlanta Aq Assoc member. Either
way if we can get it done I think it will be a cool
field trip for AGA.

Regards,

Larry
