Hi all,

Just got stationed out here a couple years ago and re-started up my reef addiction. My past tank a 12g nano and a 200g reef that me and my friend in St. Louis set up before I came in. Currently have a 55g used TruVu reef ready (center overflow) system that I drilled and added a Aqueon proflex 2 sump to. Also has a neptune apex lite system on it, eshopps S-120 skimmer, rio 17 hf return pump, ecotech MP 40w es, and cheap-o T8 fixture until I can save up for a couple AI SOL blue's. Stocking list: 2 picasso percs, yellow watchman goby and a carpenters wrasse, Bi-color war coral, green with purple tip frogspawn, a purple and green favia, ultra green welso, green bay packer, eagle eye and red zombie eye zoas
 
Sorry it took so long to get back, the job sent me on a trip for the last week. Here's some pics. The first one is of my tank currently, the second is a trio of bartlett's anthias that I inherited from my friends tank, the third pic is my 2 picasso perc (tweedle dee and dum), fourth pic is of my carpenters wrasse (I think he knows when the camera is out, always hides), and the last one is of my huge (3") cleaner shrimp pepe.

and more pics. 1st is my ultra green welso, 2nd is a green branching frogspawn with purple tips, 3rd is a branching hammer coral where the base of the tentacles is purple which fades into green and has purple tips, and the last pic is another full tank pic.

Would you also like to see the under sump, and what do you think so far? I'm welcome to suggestions. I like just about all corals, prefer frags though. And hopefully within the next year I'll be getting LED's for the tank. Also looking for good stores in the area that have good selections of coral. I think Im topped out as far as fish goes. Im in Fairfield area, and have been to Exotic aquariums, Neptune Aquatics and O Street aquariums and then Sea Splendor right in town.

Great to see pictures. What colors are you running in the t5s?

I maintain a map: Bay Area LFS

It only has Sea Splendor which seemed quite nice the one time I visited. Tell me more about the other stores and I can add them.
 
Thanks. The t5 fixture is just running a 10k daylight and a 20k actinic bulb currently. And I think after I get an apex I'm going to switch to an AI fixture do I can do sps. The other two stores are up in sacramento area. So I dont know if they would qualify as bay area.
