Hey guys,
I started setting up my new reef tank about a month ago.
Will post here the build and progress for you to tag along. Enjoy!
A little more info about the setup.
Once again I decided to go with the Elos brand. I really like the sleek and modern design and if you see an Elos tank you will notice it is top notch quality. The glass is even superior to "Starphire glass" we see mostly here in the US. The edges are perfectly polished and the seams are perfectly cut and put together.
Of course the most important is what happens "inside" the tank but I also see it as a nice piece of furniture I can enjoy when I relax on the couch.
Equipment:
 Elos system 120 (47.24 x 22.5 x 19.69)
 Elos cabinet with black doors
 Elos sump
 Skimmer: Elos PS1000. This is the brand new Needle wheel skimmer from Elos released at the InterZoo2010. I realize there are real good skimmers on the market who have proven to perform but after long talks with Jesse the Elos guy here in the US I really got the feeling they are standing behind this skimmer and it will perform extremely well. I like to try new things out and therefore willing to test and give this skimmer a shot.
 Return pump: Sicce Syncra Silent 3.0
 Lighting: Elos Aquatop with 3-4 LED stripes
 ATO: Elos Osmocontroller Digital
 Additional filtration: 2 NextReef MR1 Shorty Media Reactor. One will be for the carbon and the other one for the Filtra M Zeolith
 Water movement: Tunze Wavebox and 1 x MP40
 Controller: SApex
 Rock: For the first time ever I decided to go with Dry Rock.
02-04-2011: Tank arrival
540lbs to carry down in the basement

Installed the cabinet lighting
Put sump in place
Figuring out now how I will do the plumbing and need to build a small cabinet next to the sump for all the electrical stuff.

Didn't wanted to drill a thousand holes in the original cabinet and therefore we placed another back and sidewall with laminated panels into the cabinet.
I like also to keep the electrical as far away from the sump as possible and therefore we build a small cabinet next to the sump. Top part will hold all the electronics and at the bottom will be the dosing pump and containers.
Hope I can fill the tank with water later today....
 Full shot of the cabinet. Still need to clean up all the wires but will wait until I am sure everything will stay the way it is now.
The top part has the display panel for the Apex and the Wavebox controller. 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100159/IMG_7210/web.jpg?ver=12976219280001
 The front display panel opens to the side and behind will be the the electrical stuff nicely covered by the display panel when closed.

Some work done this week.
Water is in the tank, reactors connected etc. Doing a test run now to check for any leaks.
More electrical crap in the compartment and ready to get the dosing pumps also.
Aqua E-Top and skimmer will be here on Wednesday.
 Tried to keep all the wiring clean (all the power cords are in the grey split loom) and connected the 2 reactors 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/IMG_7224.jpg?derivative=medium&source=web.jpg&type=medium&ver=12980873680001

The Aqua Top E-Stripe fixture arrived!! 
I saw pictures and videos of it but seeing this fixture in real just blows your mind away.
Not only does it look very sleek over the tank but it achieves everything I wanted:
 NO fixture hanging from the ceiling
 Covering the tank as I am planning on some "jumping" livestock
 Being able to view the corals from the top without having to remove anything
 As the glas panels can be easily opened it is very easy to do maintenance
I took those quick pictures just with the blue led's on.

Got the skimmer  and installed it. 
Really impressed with the quality and little details. Going to borrow a meter to measure the air intake.
Filled up the reactors with carbon and Zeolites.
Ready to start cycling...

To start the cycle I used a small piece of fresh fish and a very small amount of skimmate from the frag tank.
Started also dosing the Elos Purist Line products.
I was impressed to see the skimmer in action only being a couple hours installed in the sump.
I didn't expected to see any skimmate as there is almost no bioload. Just sand, rocks
and the piece of fish.
 After about 3 hours

On Saturday I started with the Elos Purist Line.
Here is a link to the full article regarding this system: LINK (http://elos.topic-board.com/t73-elos-purist-line-guidelines).
What is the purpose of the Purist Line?
A system to feed and improve the entire biomass by reducing nutrients. Improves the activity of the bacterial flora and biological structure.
 Promotes coral growth and the increased production of bacterioplankton.
 Allows for low nutrient and high water quality (low levels of PO4-NO3).
 Stimulates the Natural Pigmentation of Corals
I think to believe it is more popular in Europe as it is here in the US or at least most users don't publish their experiences on forums as many Zeovit users do.
I have been using Zeovit for a couple years on another tank and was very pleased with it but I have been looking for something similar that needs less products and is not as tricky or maintenance intense.
I tried to gather as much information I could and from what I have been reading it seems to be a very solid and straightforward approach to a "low nutrients" system.
I found a couple experienced users on Italian forums and they are willing to follow my journey and help me when needed (Google Translator became my best friend..lol).
I will post my experiences and progress here in this thread on a regular basis.
Here is a short description from the products I am using:
 FiltraM: Molecular sieve to maintain a low level of ammonia. The highest quality zeolite, very high in clinoptilotite content. 
It can be used in any filter, or inside of an appropriate reactor. 
To control ammonia levels. 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/FiltraM/web.jpg?ver=12990815760001
 Rb10: Nourishing solution for aerobic bacteria. An indispensable primary nourishing source selected from natural raw materials. Formulated in order to supply amino acids and vitamins in a highly bio-available form to CORALS as well as all the biomass (mainly dedicated to autotrophic life). 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/Rb10/web.jpg?ver=12990815770001
 Rb20: Selective accelerator of aerobic bacteria. A mixture of microbiotic stocks aimed at establishing an adequate aerobic bacterial colony, fundamental in promoting the process of biological decomposition inside the marine aquarium. Its employment favors the normal metabolic processes of the aquarium.
 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/Rb20/web.jpg?ver=12990815790001
 Rb30: Balanced pool of enzymes, organic and inorganic nourishing substances. A nourishing enzymatic Complex for all the biomass. It avoids the mono-bacteria cultures, strengthens the already available bacteria, accelerates their reproduction, feeds all the biomass including the corals and helps in the reduction of nutrients (NO3 and PO4). 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/Rb30/web.jpg?ver=12990815820001
 Rb40: Enzymatic accelerator for the development anaerobic bacteria. A mixed powder of microorganism and enzymes. Fast acting in the microbial pre-digestion, break down and digestion of polluting organic substances and inorganic substances. 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/Rb40/web.jpg?ver=12990815880001
 Rb50: Nourishing solution for anaerobic bacteria. A natural biological activator studied in order to start and to maintain an optimal process of de-nitrification. It takes part directly in the reduction of nutrients (NO3 and PO4). Helps in increasing the production of the bacterioplankton. 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/Rb50/web.jpg?ver=12990815910001
 Elos Carbon D 500: Activated carbon, which offers superior adsorption properties. Its dedicated pore size distribution makes it highly suitable for the removal also of odor, organic micro pollutants, dissolved organic substances, as well as chlorine and ozone, playing an important role in achieving extremely low levels of dissolved organics. 
http://gallery.me.com/maxreefer/100155/elos%20carbon%20D/web.jpg?ver=12990815920001
 I will follow the instructions from the dosing chart for the first 4-6 weeks to give the products enough time to establish in the tank and to get comfortable with the dosing routine. I am in no rush to add any livestock or corals and will give the tank plenty of time to cycle and mature.

Here are a few pics from the aquascaping. The camera seems not to capture everything very well. Looks like the rocks are piled up but they are not actually. Tons of open space and caves in there.

Last week a had a little outbreak from Bryopsis
Bumped up  my Mag with a mix of BRS and Tech M.
Levels were at 1350. Used first BRS to get ot to 1500 (cheaper with BRS) and then dosed Tech M to get to 1650 and let it go down to 1550.
The Bryopsis was completely gone in 3 days. Had my Mag around 1550 at that point. Will take it slowly down again when doing water changes.
Still have some algae on the rocks (more like a powder kind). Nothing to worry about I think. Just part of the new setup.
I am not planning to stock the tank for at least a month. 
Just transferred 2 "testfrags" from the frag tank (ATI 6 T5'S) to the Elos to see how they adapt under the LED's and tank conditions. Will observe them for a while.
 Pics I took today from the "test frags"

I did some PAR readings today with an Apogee MQ200.
The LED's are about 3" above the water level and 9" above the highest LR in the tank.
I kept the Wavebox and the MP40 to keep the "normal" environment in the tank while measuring.
Without those running the numbers should be higher.
I took those pics just with the blue's on as a reference to mark the numbers.
Measurements were done with blue and white on.

System has been running for 2 months now.
So far I am really pleased. 
For now I only have about only 6 smaller LPS and a pair of Snowflake Clowns in the tank. Once I am back in town next week I will add more livestock and post pictures.
I have been feeding the fish and corals quite heavily to see how the Elos Purist Line additives handle this and if the bacteria got established by now . I am quite impressed. Phosphates and Nitrates came down quite well and stay near or at zero. No algae anymore in the tank.
I keep the tank at following levels:
Salinity: 1.026
Alk: 9-10
Calcium: 420-430
Magnesium: 1400 - 1500

Think it is time to update my thread again with some color....;)
The tank is doing great. The Elos Purist Line is doing a great job. Even with heavy feeding it keeps the nitrates and phosphates down to 0.
Here are some pics. Stll some issues with the camera and the LED's to get great pictures but you get an idea...

Installed some more equipment to make life easier
Besides the RO/DI storage tank (top) I installed a second one for mixing and storing saltwater. Inside the tank there is a heater and a Maxi-jet for flow. Attached also another Maxi-Jet on the faucet connector to pump the water more quickly to the tank when doing water changes.

The Bubble Magus dosing pump arrived yesterday for dosing 2-part. Now I dose each liquid every 3 hours with the amount needed (You just have to set the total amount needed per DAY and how may times per day you want to dose). Each liquid is dosed at different times.
Tubing is nicely organized into the sump with those handy Avast Marine tubing holders

It seems camcorder and LED's don't like each other that much and the true colors of the corals don't always get captured very well. Therefore I included some cool pics to illustrate how the corals look. Lots of frags in there but I think once they start to grow it will be nice...
Have a peak, turn up those speakers and enjoy... :ipod:

Time for a little update. 
There will be a "big" update next week. A fellow reefer who had a stunning tank for many many years decided to leave the hobby and was selling off all his beautiful corals. I was able to get quite a few from frags to colonies. Will pick them up next week and post some pics of course
Otherwise....
I am extremely pleased with the "Elos Purist Line" and my corals seems to like it very much also. I have mainly SPS with some LPS and they all color up very nicely and growth is excellent. Great PE on the SPS also. Being a happy Zeovit user in the past I think the Purist Line is more forgiving and easier to use. My Phosphates are 0 or very close and even when I try to keep fish and corals happy with a lot of feeding never see my Nitrates going over 0.2.
Here are a few new pics:

Sorry guys for being absent for a while. Been crazy busy with travelling for work.
Here are a few updates:
The tank is running now for about 9 months and doing is better then ever after a big mishap. While I was gone my buddy who takes care of tank while I was gone didn't notice the Alk solution container was empty and Alk dropped way below 7 for at least a week. The SPS got a big hit and some colonies had a big loss of tissue. I could save only a couple very small frags of them but they are coming back in the mean time.
The "Elos Purist Line" I am running since they day one is just amazing. Once you get the feeling for it it is very easy to use. After the initial cost it is not that expensive at all to run once you get to the "maintenance" stage. Running a mixed reef it seems both my SPS and LPS are happy. The SPS have very nice colors and the polyp extension is just great. LPS look full and nicely puffed up and grow very fast. It has been proven to keep my phosphates near undetectable but you have to watch the Nitrates a bit as this system would strip the Nitrates to zero. Therefore I give my fish and corals always "gourmet meals" to keep my Nitrates away from the zero levels.
Here are some recent pics:

Birdsnest I had a big RTN issue with about 6 weeks ago. Fragged a small piece with 3 small branches and has been grown amazing quick since then

This is the leftover from quite a big colony I lost to the RTN issue also. Grows slow but is gaining color again

Your tank is awesome. I really like the peninsula style tank and your coral selection, 'scape, flow, and lighting are inspirational.
