If you could hear any two speakers that you considered experts in the saltwater hobby, who would you choose and what topic would you like them to cover? Or if you don't know any speakers, what topics would you like to learn more about?

Come on guys, no feedback?

thats way to broad there betsy .....need more details

i can say you might consider (of the top of my head) pm rmougey and spstimie as i know these guys have been to alot of national shows and seen/reda speakers and might help more .....the ability to present can often cloud the details in the speech so it can be a difficult choice .....again i know there are probably many others here that have seen more speakers but those are the first to i can think of

I want to see/hear/bother John Coppliano aka Copps
Sanjay was also fun though that might of been because we got to hang out at my house.

Betsy, I don't know of enough people who are experts in the hobby to be of any use. All I really know are the guys at WWM, Julian Sprung, Micheal Paletta, and maybe one or two more.

Scott, im curious. What is Copps contribution to the hobby that interests you? I always thought he was just a hobbyist with connections. I know he dives as well. Just wasn't aware he did other things??

And if you REALLY want to wade into chemistry......Randy Holmes Farley

 

[djkms]

Randy is awesome, he would be my #1 pic.

I'm not big on presentations. Where I really learn is when I can sit someone down and pick their brain about things, preferably in front of their tank. "how did you do that (pointing to xyz)? How were you able to stay on budget/ do cheaply? Where does this coral thrive best? Ect..." in an intimate setting (maybe 10 club members at a house) I'm a very methodical person, and because of that, I tend to ask some trivial and redundant questions (which I don't ask in a large group or presentation type setting.)
