      Looks amazing Tapio, great colors on the SPS.

      You have any pictures of your old reef? I need to get you to autograph my Paletta book one of these days

      Sure, but most likely you will find it very unexciting. As you can see I don't care about picture perfect plumbing. I build for maximum efficiency of water flow and ease of changing things when they break or leak, which they will sooner or later.
      Skimmer is AquaC EV240 driven by Mag 9.5. Return pump for both connected tanks is one Iwaki 30RLXT. No filter socks used normally. Homemade calcium reactor. Top off RO-DI from Spectrapure unit that fills a 33 gal trashcan in the garage periodically. I mix in Calcium hydroxide, Kalkwasser, into it using a powerhead for 24 h. It is pumped in by a Spectrapure Litermeter regulated by a Reed float witch and an old relay. Using Jebao pumps. 2 x RW15 and 1 RW8 in big tank and 1 RW15 and 1 RW8 in small. Arctica 1 HP chiller vented into crawl space of house.

      Hi Brother Maurice!! Ahaa Staghorn is you, good to hear from you. Your are not frequenting here much in these days just like me. I have tried to post a bit more lately after I got my new build going. Most younger reefers don't know me although I have been doing this for 20 or so years, so I thought let's try to make a come back on the scene, LOL.

      Just send me a txt or email, you should have both when you want to pass by.
