Default My 225g tank
Ive been lurking on the CanReef boards for a while (mainly because I was looking for pics of people growing coral from ReefRaft & Fragalot) Some of the nicest SPS I have seen around!! I only spent a few days in Canada because I was on a project near Windsor but loved it.

Ive been in the hobby for about 5ish years now. I had my 125g tank for 3 years and upgraded to the 225g, then had an Alk crash shortly thereafter and lost all my SPS colonies. Now my 225g tank has been up for 1 year now and has stabilized but I have had to start over in regards to most of my Acros.

Tank is a Lee Mar 225G 72x30x24 w/ a 125g sump
Lighting is DIY Cree LED & VHO actinics
Aquabee return pump
2x MP40
2x Tunze 6105
ASM G5 Skimmer w/ Bubble blaster 5000 pump
Reef Octopus BP reactor
RedSea Ozone
Aquamaxx CaRx
Aquamedic Kalk Stirrer
1/2 hp Chiller
Nextreef MR1 for GFO
All controlled via APEX & Aquacontroller Jr

Thanks!
Yeah we are spoiled here in california, they import many corals at LAX airport so our LFS are usually stocked w/ nice corals.

The light hangers are from amazon- they said 500lb capacity so I figgured it would do for some LED's lol... FastCAP SpeedBrace hangers

This is kinda awesome, refreshing to see some friends south of the border . Great tank. Please dont base Canada on Windsor that's just a peice of Detroit that fell over the boarder
