I guess I got too excited with the great discussions that happen here that I jumped in and haven't introduced myself yet.
My name is Camilo Bulla and I have been interested in aquaculture since I was 7 or 8 (for almost 35 years). Yet, just recently, about 3 years ago, I started with reef aquariums. I have always been interested in large system and automation. Right now I keep a 14,000 gallon koi pond, a 70 gallon planted discus tank, and four reef systems: a 400 gallon, and two, very recently started, 200 gallon and 100 gallon system, and finally a small 40 gallon. Amazingly that takes only about 30 minutes of my day (you gotta love automation...)
I rely on Neptune Apex control extensively for controlling and automation of all those system. I am working to add more information to my tanks thread...
I have learned a lot here in this community, and I have been in my small share of heated discussions which I greatly appreciate, because they keep me on my toes. I have a tendency to question strong statements, and dogmas, but that may be due to my strong science background. I am a university professor with a DVM and a PhD, specialized in veterinary clinical pathology and cancer research. So, it is hard to avoid questioning sometimes... :)
I have learned so much from the experienced and knowledgeable people that are part of this community, and still, every day I realize how much I don't know. Thank you all for having me here...
