Well, I've been Reefkeeping for about 7 years-
My 1st Tank was an Oceanic Hex (45g??) given to me by my brother, Had a HOB Filter, Crappy skimmer, 2 MJ 900's

2nd Tank- 6 yrs ago my LFS talked me into a 90g Oceanic so I could keep some Tangs & bigger fish. He sold me a bunch of crap and told me it was all top of the line... Now I don't shop there anymore and purchase 90% of my gear on-line, I also buy my fish wholesale in Miami.

Current Tank- Found a deal on a brand new 120 Tech about 6 months ago and decided it was time for an upgrade.
Here is a rundown of my current setup-
120g Tech
80/20 SPS/LPS
Prodibio/Carbon method
Custom Sump
ATB Skimmer
ATI Powermodule
2x Tunze 6101's
Schuran Calcium Reactor
SpectraPure Maxcap RODI 90gpd
Profilux Plus controller w/ LED Lightbar & Tunze Control
Reeflo Tarpon
50g Frag Tank
Reef Optix 3 w/250w Icecap ballast & 14k Phoenix
2 Sureflo MJ Mods & 1 Koralia 4

Everyone has a mermaid,
Welcome to RS concretereefer
The system looks nice and well planed. How do you like the Prodibio so far? Could you post a few macro shots of the SPS?
I like the frag tank. Did you build it or have it made? I am in the works on building one right now.
Enjoy the site. I look forward to reading more onyour system. If you go here you can start a tank journal~ http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums/reef-chronicles/ just hit 'New Thread' Or I could move this one over there for you.

My camera sucks, trying to sell a few Frags so I can get a nice D60 ..

Prodibio.. well, It seems to be working. I've been dosing Vodka for about 16 months and started the Prodibio about 2 months ago as an alternative. I don't think I've been using it long enough to know how much of an affect it has on my system, and I'm still dosing Vodka.

I can say this, My corals are growing like mad and they look better than ever..

I don't know how common they are, they came on some zombie eye zoa's I bought a few years ago. They haven't touched any of my other zoo colonies but they have been an ongoing problem for 2 years. I've tried everything (dip, manual removal, & medications) but throwing my zoo's down the drain and they won't go away.
