Welcome to the Ocala Reef Club's Forum at Reef2Reef!

The Ocala Reef Club is based in Ocala, FL and is seeking to serve the local community through shared knowledge and experience. The goal of the club is to be oriented towards sharing wisdom from all level of aquarist, from beginner to advanced!

Of utmost importance to us is the policy of staying positive and encouraging with our fellow hobbyists.

We would like to announce our first meeting on November 6th, 2016 starting at 5:30pm. We have talked with Tamara and she has graciously agreed to host the meeting at Ocala Reef.

On the agenda for our first meeting:

-
Meet and Greet - of course we should all introduce and know each other and have fun!

-Setting club goals - what do we want our club to do/promote? Do we primarily want to be social or would we prefer to help support a particular cause?

-Discuss and club trips/projects - Aquarium/Laboratory visit? Coral Restoration trip? Aquascaping? Learning how to frag?

-Determine upcoming meeting location and topic - who would like to host the next meeting? What do we want to learn about?

If you are from the area, please feel free to contact us here and let us know if you are interested in joining the club and/or attending our first meeting.

We are setting up a fb page that should be ready in the next couple days, but no actual website for the time being at least.

This sounds awesome! We should eventually get into frag swaps or small frag auctions. The club I was in Virginia had those almost monthly and everyone always got nice pieces for killer prices. I'll be looking forward to this.

The Ocala Reef Club has had to postpone its first meeting. We will be meeting one week later, now on the 13th, still at 5:30 and still at Ocala Reef.

We look forward to seeing everyone there!
