I'm trying to get some uploaded... I'm really bad a photography :)... I also just switched bulbs and nearly everything browned out.....

120 AGA
3 x 250w HQI ( 3 Gieseman 13ks, I chose them as they are actually 10K)
2 x 54 T5 UVL Super Actinics
Hamilton Fixture, which I'm no too impressed with their reflectors....
Jaubert plenum/sand bed ( 1" plenum, 4" sand bed)
100 lbs of Kaelini and Fiji LR, Aragalive sand
Tunze Wavebox + 2 Tunze 6100s
BL 55 return ~1100 gph 0 head
(Start laughing....) ER RS80 skimmer, I'm going to be replacing with a MRC -2R recirculating beckett driven by a BL55, fed from the overflow
Tunze Ozmolator to a Reefmani Nilsen (it rocks, much better than the MRC) for makeup
AC3 controller and two DC8s

I'm adding a Aquamedic 200 mg ozone unit, should be here next week. I just started zeo on this. I'll have a Ca Rx running shortly, but am supplementing with 2 part.

I've been dosing vodka on this ( up to 5ml/day) and putting vinegar ( ~50ml in 5 gallons) into the makeup water. I've had it up and running for about 3 months, but only had livestock in it for about a month or so. I also feed pappone every three days.

Ca ~410ppm (Salifert)
Mg ~1300 ppm (Seachem)
Alk 8 dkh (Salifert)
K ~400ppm (KZ)
NO3 ~5ppm (Salifert)
PO4 ~0ppm (Deltec/Merck)
ORP 380 - 450mv
pH 7.9 - 8.2
Temp 80 - 82
