Dolfo is amazing! So passionate about what he does! I had him build me a custom tank. It matches my house perfectly. Plus he did such a great job of stocking it with beautiful fish and coral. I'm a little nutty and name all my fish. Dolfo remembers all their names when he comes to service the tank. I highly recommend him to build a tank of your dreams and service it!

Rodolpho is a super friendly guy with a serious affection for reefing. Extremely helpful answering "dumb" novice questions without making you feel like a fool. He convinced me to start up a small 29 gallon tank with my first sump. I was really intimidated by the whole sump idea and its mechanisms but he was able to help me through it.
He hand built and plumbed my entire set up (sump, tank and stand) in less than 2 weeks. He also gave me great advice and recommendations on what pump and skimmer to purchase for it. He buys parts in bulk so he was able to give me an amazing price on the whole build. It turned out WAY better than I envisioned. I cannot wait to get this baby cycling.
So happy with his communication and the turn over time. Even to this day he still answers questions I have. Hire this guy you won't be disappointed.
