Western new York reef club!!?

[Eb1air]

I've looked all around the last 3 years for a local reef club near me and can not find any I'm sure there needs to be one in the buffalo to Rochester region. Anyone know of one. ??

Nobody lives in western NY anymore?

Your saying I'm all alone.. at least I have my fishy friends.. lol

I thought for sure there were still people living in Western NY.

Maybe they are all watching the Buffalo Bills over and over on their DVRs? ;Hilarious

Upstate reef society, Believe there is a thread here for them. Not a very active group anymore though.

So wished I lived closer(although I really like where I live, these western NY shops are 3 hours drive one way), having stores like ARC, The reef shoppe, and Saltwater paradise so close would be a godsend.

I know there was a large frag swap in 2018, Fragtoberfest? Must've been organized by some club!
There's a community on Manhattan reefs - a bit far out but lots of New Yorker's there.

I think this is a great opportunity for you to start one!

Lol Manhattan to Buffalo has to be like a 5 hour drive one way.

 

[Eb1air]

Right 5 hrs is a long drive

Saltwater paradise is still there? It has to be over 20 years since I was last there. It was a great LFS and it probably still is to be around this long.
Go Bills!

Give the guys at the Salty Dogg shop in Canandaigua a call, see if Adam knows of any around. Their a fantastic shop .

Saltwater paradise is still around. My fav is buffalo coral reef. Mike's the greatest

 

[homer1475]

Nearly all my fish have come from saltwater paradise. Great LFS. Definitely worth the 4 hour one way trip for me.

 

[Eb1air]

I haven't been there in about a yr half but got some nice frags from them

A friend of mine bought a second hand setup that had an acrylic sump made by Saltwater Paradise. It had a serial number on it, and a stamp with their logo. Last time I was in there, I asked them about it. It was made in '95, and still in use today!
