THE WASATCH MARINE AQUARIUM SOCIETY PRESENTS THE FEBRUARY 2013 PRESIDENCY SPOTLIGHT ON:
"lskurys" Shelby Kurys
Hi, folks my name is Shelby Kurys, and I am a first - year member of the WMAS Presidency Council.
I am 38 years old. I have been married for 18 years to my lovely wife Leslie.
We have a daughter, Ashlee, who is 16. We live in Roy, Utah.
I have been in to salt water for a little over a year now. Currently I have a 220 gallon reef tank. It has a 55 gallon sump, an Apex controller, and runs (2) Vortech mp40s.
I like just about any fish that does not mess with my the corals. I let my wife pick just about all of the fish and corals that we have in the tank. I am in to the upkeep on the tank and making it look as good as possible. I love my Apex controller the most - it really makes things simpler, and keeps things running smoothly. If I had to pick a favorite coral I would say that our Raspberry Limeaid that we got from Laird right here on the WMAS Message Board.
I love to read about new hobbies and then try to help out when I can. I am also in to RC cars and just started flying/ crashing planes. I also liked to ice skate but was not very good at it (see my photo).
I work for the Marriot Corporation. I do maintenance on 3 of their buildings; but not the hotels, I take care of their Call Centers.
I wanted to join the WMAS Presidency because I like to help people out when I can. Look for me at the next meeting, or on the Message Board under the login name of lskurys
