Dr. Steve will take us on a photo tour of his 1200g reef tank system, full of photos and explanations of how he created his not-so-little slice of the reef! You’ve just got to see the work space behind the tanks and his basement fish room!

Dr. Steve has written several articles for the Sharkys Reef website and promises to share his Reef tank management insights with us! See below for further information! ;)

The meeting will be held at Sharkys Reef new store front on Rte 120 & Atkinson Road in Grayslake, IL at 1:00 PM on Saturday, February 17! There will be a very special give-away for CMAS members and also some great raffle items!!! If you haven't been to Sharky's, you are in for a treat!

Dr. Steve’s reef tour presentation will include photos and discussion of his 1200g project, with all of the details from the ordering and re-ordering of the tank to the skimmer, lights, fish-room and everything in between. If you haven’t done a monster reef, you need to see this!

Dr. Steve will be presenting the reef tank management topic from the viewpoint of disease prevention and environmental stability. Specifically, quarantine protocols and medications will be offered. Understanding concepts behind treatments of sick fish and corals will be discussed and demystified. Common medications will be discussed and critiqued. The plan is to present biologically sound explanations for things we may already be doing, but without fully understanding the underlying rationale. Dr. Steve will also discuss why dipping your decaying coral may be exactly what finished it off!
