Teen reefers in Colorado Springs?
- Thread starter FIshboy
- Start date
Hello and welcome to the club. I am not a teen 
... Not many teens here that I know of but don't be afraid to talk to people on MASC. Anytime you have questions just make a post and everyone will do their best to help you 
The only time your age will matter is when meeting up (people from MASC or anywhere) and I encourage you to bring your dad or mom anyway if you can as that will make it less likely for you to get a terrible deal. People everywhere want free stuff or to get it as free as possible. Don't be afraid to tell people no.
Also, I just want to point out that there are lots of people in the Springs who keep tanks and there's also a sister south Colorado club, that may have more people in your area, you're welcome to stay here and join that one too. I tried finding the link but could not find it. I did find their facebook though.

Thank you, I was looking around, and yeah it seemed like there weren't many people active any more, I'll check that Facebook link out, might try Reef to Reef as well.
I have been to Reef Koi, I trade frags in for store credit, but I don't go there too often due to no job and having no money.
I know there isn't going to many if any at all reefers my age, I found a bunch on Instagram, but I want to meet someone that I can meet in person or at least lives near me that I can chat with occasionally.

Welcome to the club! Sadly what everyone is saying is true that there aren’t tons of teens that are into reefing. I teach middle school up here in Aurora and my tanks are all at school. I don’t have tons of high end stuff but I always have coral that I’m more than happy to give away especially to a teen with a passion. I had a neighbor growing up that brought me into the hobby and I’m always happy to pass that on. If you’re looking for anything shoot me a PM and if you can’t make it up here I might be able to meet you down there.

Thanks! I'm always looking for coral, its taken me a year to get my tank halfway full, I'm starting to look for more expensive ones, especially euphyllia of any kind. but I'm always open to other coral. I don't have my drivers license just yet, a few more months and I should have it. If you are willing to trade or something, then I doubt I will be able to make it up to Aurora, its hard enough to get my dad or someone to take me to the fish store.
