Hello everyone 
Let's start a new chapter, well my old Island Reef was having a lot of problems for almost an year I was trying to fight them but I was always having STN then bubble algae attacked my rock scape and since I like everything spotless so I could not take it anymore, I decided to take down the tank and keep some of the live stock that is currently spread around LFS and friend's tanks ahah
Then I also had problem with the cabinet and that needed to be replaced.., another "excuse" to move to another system ahah whoops.
So I decided to build a completelly new system from scratch, with a new custom made optiwhite tank and custom made black cabinet, ideas start to come up and I decided to build an outside sump area where I can just keep all the equipment and make water changes without damaging the inside wooden floor.
Not to make this post massive let's talk setup...
Setup:
Tank 110 x 70 x 50 cm - with an external "coast-to-coast" overflow custom made with optiwhite glass by http://www.fragariodonorte.com/
Sump 50 x 50 cm - will use my current sump for now but will upgrade soon
Outside sump area 180 x 70 x 90 cm - Custom made with double insulation to minimize heat loss in the winter and heat up during summer.
Scape Dead rock and dead sand, objective is to start from the beginning.
Equipment:
Lights 3x Ecotech Marine Radion XR30w Pro com kit de suspensão Multi Light RMS - Sponsored and supported by Ecotech Marine
Flow 2x Ecotech Marine Vortech MP40w ES Quiet Drive - Sponsored and supported by Ecotech Marine
Return Pump Ecotech Marine Vectra M1 - Sponsored and supported by Ecotech Marine
UPS Ecotech Marine Battery Backup - Sponsored and supported by Ecotech Marine
Skimmer Royal-Exclusiv Bubble King Double Cone 200 com bomba DC RD3
Doser Pacific Sun KORE 5TH Pro
Monitorization Ecotech Marine ReefLink - Sponsored and supported by Ecotech Marine
Method Triton method - I think the problem during the long run was due to using Balling Light so in this build I will be using Triton Method.
For now here it is the first video of the layout creation.
Enjoy.
