Prefer trades for SPS or zoas of equal or greater epicness (is that a word?). |

A HUGE thanks to Rich and his family for opening their home, hosting and organizing this amazing event! It was really nice to meet everyone (except for maybe that Brad guy) and geek out. I don't even have words to describe Rich's ridonkulous tank.. seriously, WOW. I took lots of pics for prosperity (coral porn collection). Also, a thanks to the sponsors that stepped up to donate prizes! All the winners should post pics of what they got with their prizes :-) |
Great day and really nice to finally meet some out-of-towners
Especially my old bud Brad. What a small world Too bad I don't have any pics of us in our teens, although I do still have my college ID pic - mid back length hair and all :lol: Thanks for hosting Rich and all the vendors for their donations |
Thank you to Rich for allowing us to come into your home. My first frag swap experience was great thanks to everyone there.
|

Rich & the Boss,
Thanks so much for organizing this event (with Tangdaddy) and opening up your home to a whole school of crazy reefers. It was a blast. I think everyone had a great time and really enjoyed looking at your 300g reef, which is probably the most beautiful and healthy reef tanks I've ever seen. Felicia had a great time playing with your kids. Oh and thanks for providing a lot of great tasty food. Got some awesome frags and looking forward to watching everything grow out in my tanks. Anthony & Felicia |
A big shout out to Rich and his family for hosting the frag swap.it was nice meeting everyone:) the wife loved Rich's tank! Thanks Hung for giving us a ride to and from the swap.
|
The boss here
What a great turn out the frag swap was, nice to see familiar faces and new faces in the hobby.
We hope you all had fun and enjoyed yourself and hopefully you all left with new goodies to add to your tanks :) Congrats to all the prize winners!!! See you all next year. ~Bblinks wife |
Thanks to Rich and his wife { the boss } for a great day at your home for the frag swap, nice to put faces and names together. Our Chef Anthony did a superb job cooking the food as well. Thanks again. :thumb:
|
Rich,
Its my first time attending a frag swap. Its just too bad I'm just building my stand for my 45g cube after selling my 120g. Looking forward to filling my cube! Once again, THANK YOU for opening your home to us and allowing us to see your AWESOME looking tank! Take care! |
Winner!
Hi Everybody,
A huge thanks to the host and chef for all their work - especially the raffle draws. After all, I was one of the winners! I am going to take Rich's advice and wait for a group buy from Mad Jelly. I rarely win anything but today, woohoo!!! was I the lucky one. AquaAddict PS Couldn't spend too much time looking at that fab 300 gal reef tank as I was turning greener and greener so had to get out of there. |
My family and I had a great time too, sorry Shelley, didn't see your request until now.
Met some great people, some old friends and overall a awesome afternoon. Evenn with Kein there. :) |
great day
Thank a bunch for the party guys , and a big shout out to Rich and his Wife for hosting this event. Was really great putting faces to names off of CanReef, till next time....chow
|
Thanks for the great event today.. met some new friendly people.
Anthony you rocked those weber bbq's' man!! Great job. Special thanks to Peter&Selina.and Brad and Christy for the rides today. Sorry if the spelling is off on the names.. Rich tanks are looking amazing as usual. Hope it happens again next year |
Thanks again Rich and "bblinks wife" for hosting this awesome frag swap , had a great time meeting new people , and the familiar faces as well. Thanks to Anthony also for the great job on the grill.
|
This frag swap was sooooo much fun that I'm sure we'll have to organize one for next year. (either at Rich's or I can host if Rich & the Boss want to take a break). I know they put in a ton of work into organizing this event and it really showed by how smoothly everything went and how many sponsors donated door prizes.
And AquaAddict, I know what you mean about going :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen: with envy at the Boss's 300dd reef. I love the 3' front to back depth. Fabulous aquascaping and the corals are so vibrant, colourful and huge. Also the fish are awesome, colourful and FAT!!!! I really liked the fact that almost everyone stayed for a long visit with fellow reefers rather than buy and dash as has happened in the past. I remember one where it was a feeding frenzy for the first half hour then 75% of the people were gone. This time we probably had 30-40 people come and at least a couple dozen stayed for over 3 hours. Real bonus to see so many from the Island and spending time with Kein and his clan. Anthony |
This was an awesome event with a huge turn out, Baus Rich and Baus Linda many thanks for throwing up your house for over 40 people bombarding it.
Definately nice to meet and chat with everyone, catch up on old times and talk reef while scarfing down the food. Big Anthony thanks for taking the time consuming roll of cooking almost the whole event, also everyone else for bringing food and bevies.... And a final thanks to all the Sponsors for throwing prizes in and making this event even better. |
Thanks guys for coming to the swap, it was a great turn out! You guys rock.
Anthony, you did a great job manning the BBQ, food was flowing faster than coral bags were exchanging hands. :mrgreen: Sponsors JL aquatics Madjellycorals Reefsupplycanada Seacare products Much love for donating to our event. I'll post pictures up tomorrow. |
TY Mr & Mrs Bblinks
Thank you very much for your hospitality. Although we were late, we got some really great stuff. It was really great putting faces to fellow canreefers & meet some that we have become acquainted with. Too bad that we didn't get to meet others also.This was out 1st frag swap ever & we really enjoyed our short visit :). Hey Mrs Bblinks, your 300 is awesome, Mr Bblinks does great maintenance work there :biggrin:.
|
It was a great event! Thanks again Rich and fam for letting us hang out at your place! Thanks to Chris for helping setup and Anthony for working the grill!
I took some pics, usually I take pictures if people but I couldn't help but take pictures if the display tank and frag tank! Thanks to Reef Supply Canada! I won their GC! I guess I'm going to have to buy a new skimmer! Thanks to all of the other sponsors of the event as well. It was definitely worth getting their name out there! Lots if reefers at this event. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/03/3edara3y.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/03/py5u9y7a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/03/aqu4amu5.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/03/7u7amu6y.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/03/e7ujaqyh.jpg |
I just wanted to add that if MJC winners want to claim their prize we have a group buy order arriving on Thursday this week. We already have reached free shipping so if you want to claim your prize pm me or thmh Tony and we can help get your organized. If you don't have time to get on this group buy you can always join the next one which will be in a month or 2. Thanks again!
|
I would suggest everyone get in on this order with Chris and not wait for the next one. You can't go wrong with free shipping.
The boys at MJC has made a solid reputation for themselves as one of the leading coral venders on this forum and my experience with them has always been nothing but pleasant. You will get exactly what you see on the website and more. Enjoy guys. |
Thanks for hosting Rich and "Ms. BBLinks".
I am glad I was able to finally make it to a barby/swap. It was a good time and I enjoyed meeting those people I talked to. Regretfully I had to leave half way through so didn't get a chance to talk to more people. Perhaps next year. If the winners of my raffle items have questions about the products just shoot me a pm. Cheers, Tim |
Thanks Rich and "bblinks wife" for hosting a fabulous bbq and get together. Met a lot of people that you only "read" about. And to Anthony for looking after the cooking. And all the people that brought food and drinks.
It was nice to see sponsors donating prizes. Already looking forward to next years gala event. |
