  1. Canadian reefing conferences???

    I’m well aware of the vast amount of marine and reef aquarium conferences/ large Frag swaps in the states, I’m just wondering if anyone knows of any that take place in Canada? it seems as if were sorta left out on this one.
    The fact that you can’t really bring livestock & coral across the border has definitely discouraged me from venturing out to any in the states. So I just thought I’d see what’s out there
  2. RC = haters

    So I learnt today that posting a Reef Addicts link on Reef Central is apparently a copy right violation of some sort and you’re simply not able to do it.....who knew

  4. Decisions decisions...how about some help?

    It’s about time to replace the lighting over my 45gal cube the ballast is starting to go I believe. So my major decision is going to be between MH and LED, my budget is about $550
