Well hello. I would like to introduce myself to everyone and say a little something about my background in the hobby. I have been in the aquarium scene for awhile then decided to go on a break due to moving from different cities within the state of South Carolina. Now I am definitely back for good and i think its time to start what i have intended to do for a very long time. Reefing is not just a hobby for me since i was younger but it also has been a passion of mine. I am also a sushi chef which is very ironic since i cut up fish and take care of them at the same time. From softies, to lps, to sps's, i have lost many of them and grew them and that led me to gain the experience to be confident for this coming build. I will be starting a build thread and I hope you follow along and join me in this journey and any of your advice is very welcome. I am no expert by any means, so how i will go forth with this build is based on what i have experienced before and through countless hours of research and knowledge of the best of the best in this hobby and industry.

Equipment Summary
Red Sea Reefer 250 as my blank canvas with everything it came with. I believe in OEM products since they built it that way for a reason so i wouldnt be hard plumbing at the moment.

2 Ecotech Marine XR15 gen4 pros
1 Ecotech Marine multi light rms track
2 Ecotech Marine multi light XR15 sliders
1 Ecotech Marine XR717 RMS hanging kit
2 Ecotech marine Vortech MP40WQD
1 Ecotech Marine Vectra M1
1 Ecotech Marine M1 Barb and screen kit
1 Ecotech marine reeflink
1 Quantum NYOS 120 protein skimmer
1 PAX Bellum ARID n18 algae reactor for nutrient export

Pending:
BrS 4 stage 75 gpd plus rodi
GHL profilux 4 ultimate
GHL 2.1 SA doser x2
GHL kh director

Future plan:
To add the NYOS TORQ to be used as carbon reactor when it comes available.

Hope to see you guys in the build when i start the project as I am aiming towards an SPS dominant tank. May it be a successful tank or not, it is nice to hear from the nicest people here at R2R and I am glad to have learned from alot of successful reefers in this forum and this community. I might post videos of the build or maybe start a youtube channel dedicated to this so stay tuned. See you soon.
