2016 frag swaps and shows

[Chrisfish]

This is just a partial list.

There will be many many more added. It is early in the year and they have not been announced yet so keep checking back.

Michigan for example has at least 7 (Maybe more this year) but only 2 are added to the list so far.

So once they are announced the other 5 Plus will be added.

Ususally they are not announced until after the current swap has happened.

As soon as Lansing wraps up Ann Arbor will be announced.

Ok thanks!

Your Welcome.

Yes it's HRRC Hampton roads reef club

My thought was if you don't have any swaps near you then you need to bug your local club to put one on!!!

 

[Chrisfish]

Ok thanks, I'm pretty new to saltwater, still learning all of this "stuff"

List has gotten bigger over the years

List has gotten bigger over the years

That is definetly a good thing as nothing is better than a Frag Swap!

The list is still growing too and will be much much bigger before it is done.

Add this Thread to your "Watched Thread" List and keep checking back for more Frag Swap announcements.




I just checked this years list and so far for the Months of September to December there are just 7 Swaps.

But that time period last year in 2015 had 30 Swaps!

So this List could get as much as 4 Times Bigger!

Thanks guys! It was a great show. This year's event will be October 8th but we haven't finished all the final details. We should have them for February.

@Dirk Griffin thanks for keeping this updated. I have stickied this thread to the top of the forum and will share it occasionally as it's updated!

There is 1 in Mansfield in April. It is just south of Arlington. Usually has a couple of the more well known vendors such as JF and zoanthids.com. BSA was at the last one and he some really awesome frags. There are usually 3 or 4 other swaps put on by the local clubs during the year. The big club used to put on a big 1 day event every year and bring in several big name speakers along with an all day frag swap. They stopped doing that a couple of years ago. They said it was lack of attendance but I've heard other rumors.

I may head down to the Houston swap. Just depends on what vendors are there vs who will be at the one in Mansfield.

Anybody know of any shows or swaps going on in the great white north?

It kills me missing out on amazing events like macna simply because of the cross border hassle
