Back in the day on CVR I was Father Jack, lived out off of Temperance and Dakota with Stokers old 150 g from his studio.
I'm downtown Fresno now with a very bare Fluval ECO that was rescued from abandonment in another loft.
Back then, all I needed to do was go on CVR and could populate a tank with local bargain corals through swap or raiding Moses' tank.

Guess those days are dead?

What I rescued last week:

Today, already looking better.

It ain't much, but it's mine:

So awesome! What a score :D Hoping to see updates as you get going on your new tank.

I was really hoping to find the community you are talking about. Seems like the only way to get coral is from a LFS.

I've been getting corals from local reefers.
It's just not as easy to do since the club is gone so there aren't any frag swaps.
I found them through Facebook groups.

Would you mind sharing the Facebook groups? I joined a few but I think only one is local and its for the 559.
