Not too many changes in the equipment since new, still running my beefed up SWC 200 skimmer with an extended neck and the bubble blaster 3000 pump. I have a Askoll 1500 circulation pump pushing around 900 gph along with 2 Vortech MP40es and a smaller Tunze pump.

Lights are 128 3 watt LEDs mostly Cree XRE with a mixture of Royal blue, blue, neutral white and a few greens and reds for color. I also run a couple of t5s (ATI Aquablue) for color balance.

I dose Ca and Alk about 5 times a day each, and I dose a vodka/vinegar mix as a carbon through a lab grade infusion pump about 10 times a day. I still use zeolite (zeovit) stones, but that's about the only part of that system I use. Still working on tweaking corals color, but I have no complaints about growth rates.

I focus on "easier to keep" fish, as I am away a fair bit, and I don't want any too needy creatures.

Oh yeah, and I keep it all running with reefkeeper elite.
