Any Medicine Hat Reefers Here?
 

We seem to be a rare breed! I would love to know who is in the area, maybe swap some frags.

There's a few people around the Hat as well as from Taber and area. Lots I met don't
do the forums and whatnot. And some are just not friendly period!!

I'd say too bad for the unfriendly ones. It seems like every city or town has a community of reefers and aquarium enthusiasts. I think it makes the hobby more interesting, saves money, and provides a wealth of knowledge. Who wouldn't want that?

Well you would think everyone would want that,I know I do and a few of the people that I
know think the same.

Where we get hosed is that we only have one store in town and people pay through the nose for stuff from there. So when people leave the hobby or want to sell frags,equipment and fish,they figure they can use that store and what they payed to set prices. I'm not bashing anyone or anything cause I know what most people pay for stuff here,but damn you can get twice as much from ordering online or takin a trip to Calgary. I try and get all my stuff either on this forum or from other local reefers.

We used to talke trips there but its not even worth it anymore. Lethbridge has 3 good Saltwater stores now with good pricing. Heck some of the stuff is half the price of what you find it for in Calgary. Selection depends on what time you show up, the nice stuff goes pretty fast here, like right out of the bag fast.

I'll have to make a trip down that way soon as well,they keep sayin at work we have some
jobs down there but they are always getting cancelled.

Its worth it, if you throw me a PM I will tell ya when the next 2 orders are coming.

I'm heading to Lethbridge on the weekend to visit family. I have been to the one in the light industrial area (very small but well stocked), I heard there was a new one opened up on the west end called Goober's (I think), where is the third? Hopefully they have some nice coral. I'll send you a PM Ryan if you could give me the heads up it would be greatly appreciated.

PM replied.

I'm in Redcliff. I don't have alot of frags but always up to meet some new people into the hobby in the area.
