| Hi! My name is Scott. I live in central Texas next to Fort Hood. I'm active duty army currently deployed in Iraq. I should be returning home late next month. I have had many reef aquariums in the past and will be setting another up when I get home. Throughout this deployment I have been purchasing equipment and making my wife drive all over the place to pick up this stuff. With this new tank I will be starting I have been going all out. My tanks in the past where ok but I never had the best equipment and never took care of them like I should have. This go-around is going to be different! Here is a little bit of what I have waiting for me at home. But I know I won't remember everything.
135gal RR DIY LED's= 112 3watt CREE LED's half white half blue w/ controllers to simulate sunrise/sunset 4 36" T5HO w/ballast, reflectors, and waterproof end caps. 55gal sump MRC MR2 skimmer MRC calcium reactor BRS duel reactor for GFO and Carbon ReefKeeper Elite w/net, 2x ph probes, orp probe, 2x sl1 module, moon lights 1/3HP chiller by Teco with heater and UV built in Typhoon III RO/DI unit w/ duel tds meters A lot more but these are the major components | |

| Welcome! I'm hoping you will be taking loads of pictures as you build the tank and share them with us. Sounds like you have gone to great lengths (OK your dear lady has driven great lengths too) in the preparation for the tank. Always the best way to start any project. | |
