we are a nice sized group of reef hobbist from the newie to many many years of experince.our swaps are in a different location each time rangeing from allentown, bethlehem area to the state college area which brings in a nice variation of corals and local support. our next swap is in the end of jan. at that fish place in lancaster.
Thank you Dan and Brad. I will be joining next week! I do not plan to set up a tank for about 12-18 months as things have changed in the past 10 years and I want to get caught up on all the new things and techniques with the hobby also finish what has to be done on the house.
Dan I think I read somewhere that you are from Wilkes-barre, I am in Nicholson (Lake Sheridan).
Thank you,
Scott
