Calgary meetup???
MEETUP IN CALGARY??? Frag tanks and swaps and raffles? Stuff for sale? Garage sale?
I don't know about you guys but facebook is bumming me out with all these rules of things we aren't allowed to post or sell.. I have a warehouse near chinook center in Calgary. I am gauging interest and will post this post in a few groups. What does everyone think? Would you be interested? We could do a ticket fee and we could buy an expensive item and frag it up between everyone who shows up. Or we could do just a buy in for anyone interested in getting in on a frag. I know saltwater clubs in the states do this and it's a big hit. We could do a raffle for something that everyone wants like a frag or piece of gear. |
I would %100 show up , maybe bring some cool frags to trade
|
Anything you would be interested in having go on there? Like a group buy for frags or anything? When do you think would work for most ppl? I was thinking Nov or maybe Jan or Feb
|
I work shift work, however if you are able to set this up I would consider driving down to Calgary :mrgreen:
|
This event will be on November 9 2019.
Everyone is welcome to join us. I'm in the works of getting us some vendors. The "Calgary Reef Meet and Frag Swap" group has been created on facebook. The event will be held at 7012 Fisher Rd SE, Calgary. Conveniently located near Chinook Center. Tell your reefing friends. The more people that show up the better this event will be!!! Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have. If you have any requests as to things you would like to see at this event please let me know and I will try my best to incorporate any ideas. |
I just made a Canreef account to reply to this. I am just starting my first reef tank and would love to meet some other reefers in Calgary
|
It will be fantastic to meet you :)
|
Following since I hope to have a tank cycled by then
|
We are 2.5 weeks away from the reef meet up. I hope everyone is excited. Sounds like we are going to have a good turn out. Should be lots of coral frags to check out, some clean up crew and even a little bit of gear!
|
I'm just getting started with my tank, won't be cycled yet, so not ready to add anything but will be great to get to meet local, experienced reefers and make connections.
|
Local reefers and connections will be bountiful at this event!!
|
Assuming they all live and look good I will be bringing a bunch of stuff:

it would be nice if a local seller would bring in a tank or two of CUC !!!!
Babylon Snail, Turbos, Astra, blue leg hermits and sand stars....... it would be nice to load up tanks with a CUC at these things.... |
Jeffery from badlands marine is specifically bringing clean up crew! I think he is also bringing some other goodies!!

Hello
Goomba those are some nice frags you have there. Titus |
I will second that!! The shows going to be pretty awesome! We have 15 vendors coming. There are a ton of high end coral frags that are coming, lots of named stuff. If you like wwc or rr theres going to be a bunch of it. We have a bunch of free stuff to give away. The response from the community has really picked up. I'm expecting 50-200 people throughout the course of the day!

Just wanted to give a big shout out to Richard for setting this swap up! I was pretty frazzled getting just my two buckets together, so I'm sure he put in a bunch of effort for it.
It should be even earlier next year maybe for weather purposes. And more of you should come for trades! |
I wanted to come but it was between my night shifts, which makes it impossible to attend.

I used to vend an expo end of august beginning of september and although we did do some sales, the majority came about this time of year; after the back to school to allow people to catch up yet early enough christmas isnt on their minds yet. |
Thanks so much Brent! Your corals are doing great in my coral qt. Easily the biggest frags I bought a very generous size. Thank you so much. Your prices were great too!!!
I am thinking we could easily do 2 events a year. I think I'm liking the Idea of April. I do have the space available to me anytime so if anyone has input I would love to hear it. I think summer is too late. This hobby grinds to a halt around June for the whole summer it seems. |
Frag swap
I think I’ll be driving down.
