Do You Remember The Good Times On MR

[piranhapat]

Seems to me the hobby not what it used to be. What happen !!! Frags show are few or gone. Forums are quiet,. People were more friendly into trades or swapping corals. Maybe it’s just me because not many friends are into it. You would think after Covid be more shows. Maybe it’s where I live. Now that fall be here soon maybe MR be more active? With Hawaii still out doesn’t help the hobby. I still have the passion and addiction but seems to have lost community. I miss the old days I guess.

Still reefing I think so many turn it into a side hustle instead just trying to help with the expenses of running a tank / buy a coral or fish everyone wants to make a mint on frags no more 10-20$ frags everything is $50+

Kind of miss Sharkbait lol. Remember??
But yes i guess not having those meet ups/frag swaps dont help. Plus many of the people i used to talk/swap all the time are not in the hobby anymore
Also miss the old Max Reef !!!

Glad to see some old names and friends. MR still has a pulse. The hobby always has it loses and new people coming and old ones coming back. Mike glad to hear from you. Tell Tambo I said hello. Jim, I remember going to your house buying some frags. It was amazing seeing your basement frag tank. Definitely met some good people..
