LA, OC and IE, CA REEFERS

ReefHomieJon · Jan 29, 2020

Looking for local reefers to buy/sell/trade fish and corals with. Sometimes that’s more fun than the LFS.
I live in Canyon Hills(Lake Elsinore).
Anybody else somewhat local and interested?

Yeah, we've been once. Can't buy anything yet. Our QT just finished cycling and we get our DT on Monday. It's a pretty cool store!

Nice. Are we gonna wait out the ugly stages before adding corals? Or be impatient like the majority of us and add frags ASAP lol

Check out SCMAS, SDMAS, and other local clubs. I'm a member of SCMAS. Great people there! We have a local club forum here on R2R.

That’s good. You can treat your tank for stuff that won’t bother the fish but will harm the corals. In hindsight I would wait to add corals til 3-4 months lol I added SPS after two weeks. HOWEVER, my tank has done great and sps have grown tremendously since day one but still, next time I’d wait

Perfect. You have a link?

Elias Aquatics: Jason is super knowledgeable, his prices are best I’ve found, he always has a good selection to choose from. He has frags from $5 and up.

water: $1 for 5gal. RODI and salt mix.

He has or can get most anything you want: from live stock to equipment. You can call or text him at his main number.

good luck.

I had sent a join request a while ago but I never got a response

Is there something I need to do, or have, to be able to join? (I just resent a request just in case

)
