The Genesis of Reef Harmony
The seeds of Reef Harmony were sown in the college dreams of Alex, who always envisioned combining his passions for reef keeping and technology into something remarkable. Life took its turns, but the idea persisted, growing steadily over the years. For Kevin, the proposition to co-create Reef Harmony struck a chord instantly. Marrying his data expertise with his hobby was irresistible, especially alongside a close friend. Together, they embarked on a journey to bring Reef Harmony to life.

That initial spark led to a lifelong love affair with the ocean’s wonders, eventually inspiring his venture, Coralicious Frags. It was through this passion that he connected with Kevin, sharing a vision of technology transforming reef keeping. Kevin, on the other hand, transitioned from freshwater tanks to the vibrant world of saltwater. His involvement in the local reefing community, from frag swaps to club activities, deepened his connection to the marine world.
