Where would it be located?
Hi Yoel, we are planning to meet at Bru's Room Grill on bird road at 7pm.

8358 SW 40th st
Miami Fl 33155

This is mainly for an initial meet and greet of just a few of the guys that can make it. We are hoping to have something more official in the coming weeks.

Meet up update:

We had a great meet and greet, it was nice to put faces to online reef buds. We were a few given the short notice of the meet up and the hurricane preps everyone needs to get done.

We talked a little bit of everything but we achieve the first goal which it was to get going and meet each other. Our next goal is to find a more permanent spot and a convenient day to make the meetings an official thing so we can tackle topics each meeting.

If you have ideas on topics you want to discuss or feedback of today’s meeting please share it with us!

Happy Reefing and stay safe.

Absolutely agree on the quieter place! We were talking with @Ernie Crucet yesterday after we left that getting the permission from FIU would be great because since it’s in campus is quieter and there is coffee/beverages at hand. I think the ideal thing would be to have an official meeting day and location for the monthly meetups and then we can organize other activities.

I will add your topics to the list I’m making so we can start tackling them one by one!

Coffee is a must even if we make coladas and bring them lol

I think we should have a thread also which has our tank setup and components on on post and a link to our build thread so people do not have to sift throught the 100s of pages on the build thread and if we need input from a certain person for a large tank we know who we can ask for a nano or pico or so on and so fourth.

If you go to your account details you can link your build thread and it’ll automatically give you a “build thread contributor” badge so anyone can click on it and go to your build thread

I never started a build thread as my tank has been up for a while. Does it make sense to just document all my equipment onto a build thread and just track changes etc.? I've been wanting to organize all my wires and controller stuff. Maybe i can focus the thread on that. I think i need help with it though. lol

We used to rent a small room at Dave & Busters on the second level once a month for our Electric RC mini races, I think it is like 15’ x 10’ and it was fairly inexpensive... It was a while ago, but hey, how much could it be for a couple hours?...

We do have the LFS friend too no?

Campus or old people restaurant sounds good and quiet :D

Build threads are cool, lots of people visits them for reference on specific tanks and use of equipment etc; maybe is because we look at our reefs every day but is always nice to go back and see how much things change over the months.

Cabling and wiring is tedious, more so if you are OCD dominated (lol), I usually have everything on raceways, helps A LOT!!!.
