Thanks Super7

We are going to shoot for 4:00. There really is only so much people can take LOL

4pm, OK.
Thanks Super7

Shoot...I doubt I'll be able to get there before 2PM...I've got to cut back on having a life so that I can find adequate time for this hobby!

Brad.

OK Brad. We will ensure you have a spot. Will you still be bringing Frags?

J

Yes, I'll be bringing my frags. I just have to make a short 18 hole stop on the way...

OK Everyone, Just as a reminder. the auction will start at 12:30 on the dot.
So if you want to hang and chat for a bit first or if you feel you need to touch all the floating bags please try and get there a little early. There will be a registration process that you will need to sign in and get an auction number. This will need to be done BEFORE 12:30.

Thanks all. See you tomorrow

Well big thanks to Scott and Lil for having me invade there house for this great event.Also big thanks to Jason and everyone else who put this together.Some great people and some great corals made this a really great time and it was nice to meet so many people from Canreef.Cant wait to see how many more frags you guys can do next time.LOL.Clint

I thought that was a first class event. VERY well organized. Thanks to everyone who worked to make that happen (I won't list names for fear of leaving someone out...)

Next time, I'll make sure my pictures are better...

Somehow, I've found room for 8 more pieces of coral!!!

Brad.

That was nuts! 150+ frags exchanging hands in under 5 hours!

Thanks to all the organizers and a big thanks to skylord for hosting and jason for finding 150+ different ways to say, "What a nice coral". ;)

Thank you Lil and Scott for letting us invade your home and see your amazing system. There were some very nice pieces sold today. Thank you to reef network for putting this great event on and providing us with a place to get some of the rarer and nicer frags in the lower mainland. Now all I have to do is find a place on one of my powerheads to fit all my new frags.
Thanks again, Chris

Wow thanks for the great time at the frag auction.....had lots of fun, met some great people and walked away with some nice frags....see you all next time.

Yes Thanks Scott and Lil for letting us take over.

Also thanks to all who participated. 154 frags where Auctioned off at very good prices. Aproximatly $2700.00 Changed hands.

Great Time Everyone

OH POOP!

I TOTALLY Thought the 10th was Sunday. Ack! Oh well, Drew was working till 6:30 this AM anyhow, I'm sorry I missed out but I hope everyone had fun!

I believe a good time was had by all. The auction part of the event went very well and fast. We had 25 registered bidders and about 40 people for most of the event. I was impressed with 3 in particular. Two drove all the way from Kamloops just for this frag party, then drove home after. Wow. The third was so determined to be here, when his ride bailed out on him he got on his bicycle and rode in from Langley.

I took a few pics of the event.

The first two will give you an idea of what it takes to store that many frags. Two 6ft tanks in my fish room where absolutely full. My sump was so full it shut down the skimmer.

Heres a couple of crowd shots.

Heres a shot of a few people trying to figure out how to sneak out with my display tank.

And probably one of the most important tools used was the display. Jason McK brought a projector and we were able to show every frag or Mother Colony.

And finally a shot of my wife after the party.....

Oh no no no.....differnt party! Sorry Lil.....lol

All in all it was a great day. Lil and I are happy so many could show up to make this a success. For those who missed it, start planning for this fall.

Scott

Thank you Lil and Scott for for hosting the event and everyone else that had a hand in putting this event together. I had a great time and was very impressed with how well the event was organized, the quality of the "frags" was beyond expectations. Ill definitely be at the next auction :biggrin

Everyone looks so solemn and serious :lol:

It was very cutthroat had to keep the poker face on the whole time.LOL.Clint

I also wanted to Thank Tom, Chris (HJKChris), Chris (TangDaddy), And Kyle (Renegade) for all their help with the event. With out them the event could not have gotten of the ground

J

154 frags!!! LOL We were all just trying stay awake. :surprise:

Lovin' my new corals. Thanks to all the organizers who worked so hard. What a great event!!

Rob

Thank you Scott and Lil and Jason and Tom and every single person that was there. What a great time and beautiful frags (especially the LE's :wink::wink:)and great laughs. Loved it.
Nice to meet you all and can't wait till this fall's auction (should have a bigger tank by then).

Richard

Thanks to Scott and Lil for hosting such a great event and to all those involved with the event. And thanks to Jason for pointing out which pieces were '' LE '' because I don't have the experience to know the difference. Now I just need to get some ''Super Male'' fish to go with those frags!

I'm glad the event was a success! Maybe I'll make the next one. :)

I want to thank Scott and Lil for opening their home to all the rowdy reefers. Jason Mck was the point man on this project and it was the best yet.

It was one of the BEST events so far, held by your REEF NETWORK.

I obviously left to early as it looks like Lil brought out the good stuff after I was gone.

PS: I guess I will have to turn my 3 frag tanks into the now very popular ZOO farms. I might then be able to giving Doug (Pinhead) a run for top frag.

Tom R

Really glad I went. Great job putting it on. Great selection of frags and some great deals! I will definately be at the next one!

I Had a great time and all the frags i bought had polyps out within half an hour of being in the tank.

Was glad to meet the great canreef people, with some 3reef and reefcentral posters as well.

Thanks again to Scott and Lil and their family and to the reef network guys (Jason tom chris and kyle) who worked so long and hard for no extra pay for themselves.

also big props to all the buyers and sellers who participated for everything going smoothly

it was A great adventure and experiance.

You're planning another for this fall? Awesome, I'll be there!

As others have said thanks to Scott and lil for putting us all up for the day at your wonderful house. Thanks to Reef network and everyone that made this event so fun and spectacular!! It's events like this that bring all of us together and keep the hobby alive. I am sure everyone walked away with handfulls and smiles, can't wait to be apart of the next event see you all soon.

Thanks from the interior
 

Hey!

Many thanks to everyone who put this together, as well as many thanks to everyone for allowing two bidders come from the interior and be apart of your network. I can't wait until the day comes when I put up new photos and someone says "great tank....looks a lot like May's TOTM". The majority of what i bought was from Tom's collection. That green monti cap is amazing under actinics!

I can't wait until the next one. Hopefully I will have something to add to the pot, mind you I don't know if it's needed. 150 frags was great. Also I can't wait for the possibility of a hardware yard sale. I'm interested to find what many of you think is old or junk and becomes my new gold.

Thanks again, great meeting all of you.

I had a great time, exellent group of people and i picked up some amazing zoos, the radioactive dragon eyes are spectaculer and for a good price to. And for olly 5 buck i got practically a foot of some of the nice green star poylp i have ever seen. I was the one who rode my bike there and im happy to report everything made it back home fine lol.

Thx again see you at the next one
