Our club has a very good local forum so I don't expect a lot of traffic here. However, the club is having issues getting members to run the club and I'd very much like to have this forum open should anything happen to the current SWFMAS.com forum!

Thanks you,
Ron Reefman

So David, how do we get SWFMAS added to the main list of Florida clubs and have our own forum?
If it needs anything, I'll I'm willing to work it or moderate it... whatever.

Any updates here? I'm a relatively new SWFL reefer and spend much more time on this webpage than the SWFMAS.

Welcome to the area. In what part of SWFL did you land?

As far as SWFMAS club goes, I don't think there is anything new in the way of getting it hosted over here. @Ron Reefman may be aware of something I'm not. The club is still active but the site traffic is just very limited.

Im in North Port, work in Punta Gorda. I was actually the lucky winner of the RSR 250 giveaway here on R@R so that is the tank I am working on getting set up.

I'm registered at the SWFL forum but I never use it. Would probably be a lot more active with more users if it was accessible though R2R.

I was just browsing the forum and it sounds like it would be a simple fix to get our own forum going here, even comes with a cool banner.

I'd be happy to join. I live in Bonita Springs. I was a member at Chicago Marine Club for 20 years. I was out for the last ten years. We live here full time.

Oddly enough I had a conversation with some of the SWFMAS board members at MACNA last week. I had another discussion about possibly having the local forum hosted here at R2R. So nothing as yet has changed (SWFMAS still has it's own website) but at least the conversation continues.

For those interested, SWFMAS is having their annual frag auction on Sunday, October 20th. It's a nice event and you can score some corals at very reasonable prices.

We technically don't have a SW Florida local club hosted here at R2R...it's something some of us are working towards.

I did just join the SWFMAS.com forum as well since I knew that but it is nice to know there is still a community in the area.
