I gave a talk on temperate marines at MACNA last year - I must say that there was very little interest in the topic.
Typical conversation, Aquarist: "Oh - I see you are speaking here, whats your topic?" Me: "Temperate Marine Aquariums". Aquarist: "Anything about mini-reefs?, I just set up a 100 gallon reef" Me: "No, sorry". And then they would just sort of wander away...
I bet there was less than 50 people in the audience.
