Split from the FoF thread in events this is a place to suggest ideas to make next year's stand even better than this year's.
Comments welcome from all whether you were there or not, what would you expect/like to see on the UKaps stand.
So the starter for ten...
So what do others think about these or any other ideas.

- Aquascaping hands on zone - Trays of substrate and hardscape so that people can get a feel for how a 'scape comes together.
- Low Tech Display - Tank(s) which showcase(s) what you can do without adding carbon and extra lights. (A number of people were asking about this).
- UKaps business cards - something small and cheap to produce that can be handed out to anyone who shows interest, all they need to say is who we are and where we are.
- Talking to the organisers about layout - It would have been great if the Snail shop had been next to us. Also they had a stand selling plants but because some of them were for ponds they were also hidden (literally) away in the pond section. While they may not have been the best plants we've ever seen it would have made more sense to have had them closer by.
- Bring our own livestock (and mature media) for display tanks - Having 'scaped some amazing tanks the lads were then running round to find fish/shrimps to go in them. While they did an amazing job on acquiring absolutely everything (large filters, heaters, fish, shrimp) we were limited by what was there and who was liberal enough to loan their fish to our cause.
So what do others think about these or any other ideas.
