Hey Miami reefers, just wondering if anyone is up to meet up occasionally and talk reef stuff, help each other out, socialize etc. My friends have no interest in the hobby and there are no local clubs that I know of .
305 Reef Club, Miami Reefers

Well so there have only been four of us to respond but I’m up for a meet up some time. Are any of you members of FMAS? They sometimes have their monthly meetings at the UM Campus. I need to renew my 2019 membership
FYI folks, there's a HUGE group of Miami/Lauderdale/PalmBeach reefers in the Florida Marine Aquarium Society group. There's no presence of the group on R2R to my knowledge, but they have an active forum on RC, and there's also the facebook group. They also have a website for events and people who don't do the forum thing: https://www.fmas1955.org/
There's some spectacular reefers with amazing tanks and LONG histories of keeping every type of aquarium critter in the group, so I'd strongly suggest checking them out, joining the club, participating in some events, and posting on related forums (or lobby for them to start one on R2R if that's where the momentum is these days - I think they've mostly migrated to Facebook).

Oh, I see there is an FMAS board here on R2R https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/florida-marine-aquarium-society.108/
It looks like FMAS posts in here, and people cross-post in here. What is the Miami Reef Club? Maybe that's why nobody is active here, too splintered. Is there a Miami Reef Club? Google doesn't turn anything up. Maybe it's worth asking R2R to close the "club" site, and then people will just stay focused in the FMAS forum?

Yes, I am a member of FMAS (might need to renew) . I follow their forum on here. The FMAS meetings are sometimes in Miami but mostly in plantation which i can never make it to. There is no Miami Reef Club to my knowledge. I posted this as an informal way to connect with some locals in the Miami area for an unofficial meet up if anyone was interested in organizing something. Sorry for the confusion.
No worries, I'm just trying to help you find more Miami reefers. I'd still recommend posting in the FMAS areas and asking for people in Miami, since FMAS is a thing, and there is a lot more traffic there then there is here in this subforum.

I’m super interested in a meet up/frag swap. I’m in the Kendall area! Can bring shots of coladas!

Maybe organize once or twice a month to meet up and talk reefs, anyone who wants to sell frags or swap frags. Lets make this happen! If it is consistent more people will eventually join in @Ernie Crucet
