Great News!!! David from Reef Trends and I have been working on getting together a "Safety Stop," something I have been trying to get together for the last few years, and are going to make it happen for FFM X! In the interest of not spreading pests among out tanks, I wanted to have small doses...

This year's FFM will also feature a few speakers.

I just put together $500 in Frag Farmer's gift certificates to give away during the day at the FFM. Part of the FFM has always been the gift certificates that I put together that are good at ANY vendor at the FFM. Most of them will be given away at random to people coming in!

People have been asking for a floor plan for the FFM. It keeps changing as more and more companies ask to be a part of the FFM, but here is what it looks like right now. This is easily the best FFM lineup I have ever seen. Totally worth the ride down...

Okay, so it turns out that the Nathan Hale Inn is not quite as accommodating as I thought. They are reneging on the deal that they quoted me on the phone. You are welcome to book with them but they are not going to honor the group rate that the woman quoted me- so you are on your own with...

I have group rates for anyone who wants to stay the night before with the Best Western in Mansfield CT (5 min down the road) and the Nathan Hale Inn (just across the parking lot behind the school). Just let them know you are with the Frag Farmer's Market and you should get the discounted rate!

Here is the updated list of sellers for the Frag Farmer's Market, including the companies that will be there. I will send out a list of companies who have donated to the raffle in a bit, it already has some crazy stuff in it and grows daily. Looks to be the biggest, best FFM yet! Coral...

How about we add a contest to the FFM this year? Thanks to Lou from Tropic Marin for sponsoring this!

It's that time again! I am in the process of getting together the FFM for this year. It will once again be the swap not to miss for the Northeast. Last year there were 60+ vendors with 10's of 1000's of corals at great prices, and over 1000 people came out for the day. It was a huge success and...

I don't know if anyone in your area was on the fence about the FFM this year but I was up there last night for set-ups and I have to say it is easily the best year for coral selection. Every year I see stuff that I have never seen before, but this year was AMAZING! There are so many sellers...

Chris from Aquadreams in MA is going to be giving away a Red Sea Reefer tank at this year's FFM. Just stop by the Aquadreams booth and pick up a ticket- it's FREE!

Ben from Supreme Reefs just sent me a few shots of his stuff that he was planning to bring along to the FFM. He is a new addition to the FFM and I am pretty psyched to see some of this in person!

I just booked a group of rooms at the Best Western in Mansfield CT if people would like to stay the night beforehand. Just let them know that you are with the Frag Farmer's Market and you get the discounted rate. If you have any issues (beyond a reef addiction) just let me know!

There is a fairly inexpensive Best Western down the street if you decide to stay the night before.

Here is the "preliminary list" of sellers for the FFM so far. I apologize for any of the names/locations that are not completely correct - feel free to shoot me a PM to fix if needed. This list does not include any of the "I want to sell but have not paid in people" If you think you should be...

Thanks for the good word. It is a HUGE job to put the whole thing together but is always a great time. I always think of it as saving time driving to all of the stores and people's houses. I just have them all come to me! The number of corals at the Frag Farmer's has become mind blowing...

The E.O. Smith High School Coral project is proud to announce that it will be hosting the 9th annual New England Frag Farmer's Market at E.O. Smith High School in Storrs CT on March 5th, 2016. It has grown into the biggest swap in the Northeast, bringing in 50+ coral "farmers" from all over the...
