From Kitchener here!

From Ottawa :)

thanks dude :D

Hi from Aurora, ON.

Kingston Ont
Been a lurker here for a while !!!

Mississauga :)

Have known this forum for as long as I have "the other one". Been a lurker here the whole time just because focus on this board has been out west. Glad to see so many actually are close by.

Glad to see you here Zena.
If we keep going, we might possibly end up with as many Ontario posters as westerners and the other site will no longer be needed.

hello everyone, Here from Whitby ontario. I don't have a reef aquarium up and running yet but i do have a 110 purchased... Looking forward to meeting locals and learning more from the rest of Canada.

Welcome love-my-fish, zenafish, CanReefGuy, WLDOR, acropora1981, tparsons, EcoReefer, MikeInToronto!!
Seems to me the board has a fairly strong East presence now. Quite a few sponsors from Ontario have signed up and more and more members from Ontario and beyond.
Great to see!!

Was wondering if there was a ontario classified section to sell coral's,live stock and equipment?

Nope, just put your location in the title :biggrin:

I figured North of Toronto was close enough, I am in Brampton,well Bramalea to be exact.

cool thanks

I was a little hesitant on advertising but now that I know there is such a large ontario presence I'll start posting in BOLD

from kitchener here!

Maitland/Brockville here.

LOL, they need a seahorse forum here...otherwise, chances are I'll remain as lurker...really can't contribute to reef discussions...NOT my forté...i kill corals :(

Here you can say you have 10 tangs in a 500 gallon without mr tang officer arresting you!!! Lol
or how about I just don't feel like updating my info for the next 2 weeks without being stranded on deathrow!!! Oh yeah lol

Or how about the picture of my coral for sale shows 3 other tanks in the background so now mister Jupiter thinks I am a retail business lol but anyways this site rocks with good open forums for anyone of a particular interest!!!

Hey zenafish it's me rui live right up the street from you!!

Perhaps send Titus a pm. There seems to be enough seahorse keepers on here. He may set up a forum for them, if he figures the interest is there.

Oh don't know such a thread exist, of course I have to say HI :)

Just wanted to welcome all the people from Ontario! Post some pictures of your tanks!

It's such a small world now due to technology.

I actually have canreef.com on all our business cards out here. You be amazed how mnay people not know about this site.

Here ya go.
I am quite proud of my system. I started building it Jan/09 and is my first salt water system. Many, many hours have gone into it. In the system is a Aqua Pod 24g, a 6' 220g, a 8' 120g frag tank, a 6' 180g sump and a 4' 90g mixing/fresh top off station.
Hope you like it.

Very nice! Its obvious that you have put a lot of work into your setup and it shows.

Here's my 120G Skimmerless LED lit tank.

London, Ontario here.

Any thoughts on how we could encourage more ontario members to participate? Perhaps a ontario dedicated for sale/used eqt/livestock trading section? I don't know.

Sounds like a great idea to me.

That is a great idea, I will give it some thought. I found this site because of your tank for sale so if we had more great stuff available. Dave, maybe you could buy, QT and ship healthy fish to people in Ontario that don't have the access to the fish store that you have:mrgreen:???

I imported some great fish a year or two back (exotic/expensive ones), but realistically most people can find the fish they require at the LFS. Did not make sense for me, I shipped about 10 fish throughout Canada...

I would like to see more Ontario folks stay on the site and participate, rather than just pop in from time to time...

hullooo easterners! I just read through this thread and am now intrigued about this mysterious "other board" that you speak of :lol: I love a good drama!

Canreef has been up since, what, 2001? I've been into saltwater since 2004 and only just joined canreef last April (2009) :biggrin: There are lots of people out there who still do not know about Canreef, even out west! I was at a LFS chatting it up with someone about reefs totally expecting that they were a canreefer that I had not met yet, and when I finally got around to asking what their handle was they just gave me a funny look :redface:

Anyway, happy reefing!

ps. I used to live in Mississauga (Meadowvale), does that count? :-D

It would definately be nice to see more Ontario members being active on Canreef. We are slowly getting more I see and that is awsome.

A definate benefit would be having an exclusive buy/sell section for hardware or livestock in Ontario, because it is sooo disappointing looking at some of the stuff other western members are offering, especially with livestock, and not being able to partake.
But I must say I have had great success with buying equiptment and having it shipped. Got my lights that way :)

Brooklin, Ontario :biggrin:
