Reef Network Frag Swap and Auction
 
OK I think it's official.

This years event will be a combination of swap meet and silent auction.
all sellers should contact me via PM to let me know you need some space to sell.
For those who want to submit auction frags I will need exact coral frag types and amounts as soon as you can.


Date: June 27th 2010
Time : 11:00am until everything is sold (this usually happens fast)
Location : Seahorse Fanatic's house (exact location will be posted here closer to the event)
6745 Lakeview Ave, Burnaby
Anthony's cell is 604-868-5553.
Please e-mail photos to reefnetwork@gmail.com for all corals that will be entered into the auction

canreef swap party
 
many of us canreef members are just as fascinated with freshwater aquatics as with reef keeping (just take a look at forum here dedicated to freshwater keeping). to stir up most everyones' enthusiasm why not encourage people to also bring in freshwater equipments, livestocks, plants etc and make the swap party a roaring success. i myself for one will be hunting for treasures you might be bringing in.

BlueWorldAquatic 06-02-2010 03:45 AM

Give me a shout later when you guys get a chance. I'll send up a few things if you like so you can auction off and use the proceeds for your expenses.

By All means I think it was the first swap meet we encouraged the Fresh water people to come out. Unfortunately not a lot came. But by all means we can do that

I might have a few small frags this time. not much space in a 10 gal nano to do frag work in. I have a Pink Riccordea, a piece of neon yellow finger leather, and 4 frags of orange/green lobophyllia [robusta?] (one x3 heads, one x2, and two singular heads.

cdp 06-16-2010 02:34 PM

SeaHorse_Fanatic 06-22-2010 08:13 PM

I will have 5 patio tables available and lots of deck/camp chairs. If you are selling and have a small table, you're welcome to bring it along.

Freshwater & saltwater enthusiasts are welcome to this event. Bring your families if you want. This will be a great chance for you to prove to your spouses that NO you are not so crazy, here's somone crazier about fish & corals. I have 8 tanks to view (from a 3 gallon cherry shrimp tank to a 210g mixed reef) for almost 750g total volume.

My wife Irene will be making some Malaysian food (probably some spicy noodle soup dish & maybe curry chicken on coconut milk rice) as well as bbqing up some weiners & smokies if anybody wants to buy an inexpensive lunch on-site instead of taking off for McDs. Pop & juice will also be available.

Start time is 11am & we'll run it till 4:30pm or whatever time everyone leaves.

This Sunday morning.

Anthony, Irene & Felicia:biggrin:

nice!

Jason McK 06-24-2010 03:41 PM

Thanks Ken, Made a special trip into the office just to get it.

Jason McK 06-24-2010 03:48 PM

It doesn't look like the Auction is going to have a huge amount of Corals. Most people appear to be selling in the Swap meet fashion. Nothing wrong with that.
We will still have the Auction. There are 29 corals in the Auction. I will post times and coral names Later today
