I'm in Pasco. There are two local clubs which are pretty active. Tampa Bay Aquarium Society and The Aquatic Club of Pasco. To my knowledge, TBAS has been around longer but they meet in Riverview on weekdays (Monday or Tuesday I think) which makes it difficult for me to attend due to the drive.I am also looking for a local community to get involved with. Unfortunately, I am in Tampa so I fear I am not close enough to Miami to be very active :/
Though I would very much like to know people in Florida for easier buying/shipping purposes. It seems like most clubs, and even forums, are far less active nowadays than previously. Very strange to me. All the clubs I could find in Tampa seem to have been disbanded a few years back.
Also, this is my very first post! I've been a long time browser of the threads here, but most of the threads I read before were from years ago, so I didn't know there was still an active community here! Very exciting find for me haha.
Hello. I’m visiting Miami and I’m looking like crazy for a decent planted aquarium shop. Do you know about any?I'm in Miami, I keep shrimp (TB, Tigers, Pintos, PRL), scape and grow some emersed plants. In the progress of setting up my shrimp breeding rack atm. I'm not an incredibly social person but may be interested in meeting up.
Is this not Neighborhood Fish Farm?There is Tripical Fish Farm in Miami. They sometimes have a nice selection of plants. And you can see them on Instagram at Tropicalfishmiami
Here’s their last pic of plants 2 days ago

It’s a far drive for me some only made it down there once. It’s a nice place as I remember.
