Pardon Our Dust — We’re Reef-Building!


We’re making updates to the NORE website and fine-tuning a few things.
You may notice some changes (or temporary messes) as we improve the site. Thanks for hanging with us while we build something better!

Upcoming Events

NORE hosts monthly meetings, workshops, and special events throughout the year. Below is what’s coming up next — we’d love to see you there.

Ohio Fish Rescue Tour

Step behind the scenes and experience one of Ohio’s most unique aquatic destinations with NORE’s Ohio Fish Rescue Tour.

Ohio Fish Rescue has become well known for providing a second chance to fish in need of new homes while educating hobbyists and the public about responsible fishkeeping. During this special guided tour, attendees will get an up-close look at the facility, learn how the rescue operates, and hear the stories behind some of its most memorable residents.

This is a rare opportunity to explore a side of the hobby that most aquarists never get to see. Whether you’re interested in the rescue’s mission, curious about the facility, or simply looking for a unique aquarium-related experience, this tour offers something for everyone.

Registration is required and space is limited.

🔥 NORE Reef Auction is BACK 🔥

If you’ve never been to one of our auctions… you’re missing out. This is where deals happen. Corals, fish, gear – all moving fast, all priced to sell.

We’ve made a few changes this year to keep things moving and make it even better:

  • Sellers limited to 15 lots (bundle them up)
