Hello there
My name is Anthony from HB CA. I have been in this hobby since 1983. My first job when I was in HS is working for Tis Tropical in Fountain Valley Ca. Sinthe the first time I laid eye on the salt water fish I was hook. I remember trade my pay check for an Eheim canister filter to run my salt water fish tank. It was $300 haha but anyway forward to the present I just restart my Leemar 265g sps tank about 1 month. I had a full blown SPS ultralith system back in 2006 but when the economy crash in 2010 unfortunately I have to take it down. The electricity bill was crazy high and I could not maintain the tank anymore. However with the LED and DC pump technology now I want to come back even stronger than before and enjoy this wonderful hobby. Here are some picture of my old tank

The new system is green concept. Light is LED, return pump is DC pump and power heads are also DC. And soon I will have solar for the house. The apex control all aspect of monitors and 7 dosing pumps are dosing Fauna marine balling and color elements. Soon I will start the reef vitality after great success with ultralith system in my old tank. Anyway that's pretty much what I have right now just need to have time to grow out all those colorful sps frags.....

Thank you
Anthony
 
Gorgeous!! I would love to follow the progress of your tank in a build thread!! :)
 
Welcome to r2r!!! Awesome tank keep them pics coming.
 
Thank you all for the warm welcome. I have to dig out my better camera to take better pictures. Cell phone pictures is convenience but the quality is below standard.
 
My new tank will be running the reef vitality, color element and balling light system from Fauna Marine. I will keep a log of events through out the process.
This is a hybrid from their new zeolight program.
