Any Ontario focused sites
 

Am I ever jealous on all the different frags and corals for sale out west and never available here. :cry: is there any site that is focused on Ontario or the gta area

There is this one. I dont know if i can do that here lol. But I have heard some complaits from people about how strict it is. Never signed up myself though.

O sorry if I wasnt suppose to ask this question I didn't mean anything by it the amount I've learned from here is amazing and with amazing people.

aquarium pros is sorta Canada's reef central. i am on there to check out store sales for the most part and the classified section is pretty solid.

can reef is the only canadian forum really worth while - i am also on a southern ontario forum but we just shoot the **** and organize group buys on there. I get all my solid info from here!

Don't see a problem with that :)

Wow, i wouldn't got that far, more like Kijiji/Craigslist for GTA aquarists :lol:
Canreef would be more like Canada's ReefCentral :biggrin:

Too much yelling over on AP :question:


A lot of the local GTA 'hardcore' reefers sell/trade frags by word of mouth, mainly to avoid the hassle of 'no shows' and 'low-ballers'. Once you get to know the local reefers you won't have problems getting quality frags; sorry I don't have anything available at the moment :smile:

Here's a local ad http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=81891

should have been clearer - its like RC in terms of strictness, definately not in terms of info. when the site owner just berates noobs for questionable stocking on every thread its hard to appreciate what else the community can possibly offer.

You should try Reef Escape. Not too many people on that site yet, but it does have some really good members. Very friendly and knowledgeable forum.

Most of the AP sponsors are also on Reef Escape, so you can still stay in the loop with the specials/shipments.

You just gotta get crackin' & have some of the other Ontario hobbyists join this forum. With the higher than avg population in that province, shouldn't be too difficult. Goes for any other provinces that may be under represented here. Tell your friends!

There's a few small Ontario forums - I think there's one in the Ottawa area, one in the Peterborough area, and another in the Hamilton area.

As for the GTA, like was said before, AquariumPros is like the Kijiji/Craigslist. Not much forum content, but most go for the classifieds.

Also check out GTAaquaria.com - it's a fresh/salt forum and there tends to be a bit more "discussion" than over on AP. There's a lot more SW folks over there now so it's worthwhile to check out (disclaimer - I'm a mod there).
