So I recently I purchased the Vertex Alpha 200 Cone skimmer and should be arriving soon, I also got lucky enough to receive an Ecotech ReefLink and going to mess with it soon. Here are some pictures of whats to come, I Found a way to create a mirror canopy and that build process will begin in the next few weeks. Here are some pictures of me messing around with the lights and receiving my reeflink.

Looks great!! Great idea for mounting the lights!
 
I just purchased a Diablo dc 10500 and a 5500 also a ehim 1260 for my calcium reactor that will be made.
 
Some things have came in the mail, I Changed my bio pellet reactor to the hydra aquatics biopellet fr-45, I also Received the things needed to hang the lights and I went with a more cleaner look.

I have some questions if anyone can chime in, I'm not sure whether or not to have the radion's like the one in the picture (verticle) or having them horizontal.

Also I'm on the look out for a calcium a reactor and this one caught my eye, SKIMZ CM 152 Monzter E-Series Calcium Reactor. I was wondering if anyone has had one of these reactors?
 
Was this tank the one at the 2013 MACNA in Miami?

Nice build so far, keep us updated with the build.
