ReefStock is a unique flavor of reef aquarium event home grown in the Colorado Rockies since 2008 to really focus on what makes aquarium conferences an aquarium party you won’t want to miss. Like many aspects of our lives we had to hold off on having ReefStock in 2021 but we didn’t sit idle as we concentrated our efforts on ReefStock 2022, this year, coming up in three weeks!
With all the extra time we had to plan this year’s ReefStock Denver we were able to expand the size of the show to a whopping 50% bigger with even more manufacturers, more vendors, more raffle prizes, and of course more livestock for the most exquisite coral shopping experience this side of the Mississippi. Just about every major aquarium brand will be attending ReefStock Denver on March 5th & 6th including show sponsors ICP Analysis, Fritz Aquatics, Ecotech Marine, Brightwell Aquatics, CaribSea, Neptune Systems, Reef Nutrition, Two Little Fishies, Kessil, Tunze, and Unlimited Color Corals.
One quick look at the floor plan reveals no fewer than seventy different booths to visit during your time at ReefStock and we can’t overemphasize how much gear, livestock and reef aquarium products will be on display. Attending ReefStock is a great opportunity to see new gear, ask the manufacturers specific questions about products you already use, and window shop for upgrades that you might be entertaining for your own setup.
In the lower left you’ll see a new ReefStock raffle area which will be overflowing with a huge array of different prizes ranging from high end gear to livestock, gift certificates and even a few new tanks to add to your growing collection of reef and other aquariums which we’ll spotlight as we get closer to the event date. ReefStock wouldn’t be a fully fledged reefing conference without some top notch speakers and we are proud to announce that we’ve lined up three incredible presenters to inform, entertain and educate everyone who attends their talks.
A sampling of raffle prizes from 2020, this year’s prizes will be announced shortly
We’ve already collaborated with Sara Stevens of the Butterfly Pavilion to produce a couple of videos about her refuge of Caribbean corals being held for safe keeping and grown out in the front range of Colorado. Our next two speakers are both from Texas with Paula Carlson of the Dallas World Aquarium and Mike Senske of Aquarium Design Group – Paula has extensive experience working with rare and unusual saltwater fish while Mike’s company has installed literally thousands of aquariums of all kinds and they’ll both be sharing their expertise to help you better enjoy your aquariums.
After missing our local Colorado last year’s we’re incredibly excited to see everyone from our local community once again as well as reefers and professionals from all over the country. Also with ReefStock being the first major reef show of the year we’re expecting to lay our eyes on some brand new and unannounced new aquarium gear for the first time. We really hope to see so many of you again and meet so much of the Reef Builders fans, readers and viewers so if you live even kind of close, make sure to make plans to come to Denver in three short weeks, more details are available on the ReefStock 2022 website where you can also purchase your tickets, merchandise and raffle tickets.
