Reef Aquarium System Design Principles and Good Practices

Reef Aquariums are often prone to problems caused by systems failures, poor planning and design. This talk will focus on looking at reef systems from an engineering design perspective and discuss ways in which the impact of component and system failures can be reduced through the use of proper design. Good practices to alleviate the impact of some of the common failures will be presented.
