Rebirth - 1500l

Well.

It's time to start over.

This build is a reconstruction of my previous system, Monolith, that crashed a few weeks ago due to a electric failure.

My first thought after that was to dismantle and sell out everything but passed a few days I just found that's not the way to go.
So......here we are.

The setup is basically the same, with a little less sand and rocks.
This time I'll able to do what I wanna do on Monolith, but didn't due to the fact that Monolith was an upgrade project.
This is a fresh start, so I can plan it more carefully.

The new layout:

Right View


Front View


Big Island


Small Island



Some setup info:

Dimensions: 1,8 x 1,5 x 0,70 (meters). Cristal Clear 15mm glass with euro braces. Internal overflow box.
Lightining: 2AI Vega + 2 AI Hydra52 over the Big Island and 2AI Vega over the Small Island
Skimmer – SRO Super Reef Octopus 5000 Internal
Calcium reactor - Super Reef Octopus 5000 dual chamber
Cooling - Chiller ¾ HP Gelaqua Chiller
Heating - Two Finnex 500W titanium heater
Controller - Apex Gold
Circulation – 1 Vortech MP40 (with battery Backup), 1Maxspect Gyre XF150
Return – Reef Octopus Water Blaster 7000
Sandbed – 2cm of samoa pink, Fiji pink and crushed coral #1
Sansibar rocks



That's it for now.
I hope that this journey can be a little more..........peaceful
