Hello everyone, I'm here with news and to show you the last pictures of the tank 
This layout with 2years and 5months has reach a point were nothing could grow anymore :| chemistry battles everywhere, sand was sooo saturated, corals dying below on areas with 0% of light like it is normal, the fish couldn't swim properly with the coral density
almost had to install traffic lights 
well a radical change had to be done.
Yesterday was the big change day to Island Reef v1.1 , took us 9hours to take everything out and do a selection on the corals.
So here it is some pictures that I took of my mates taking the big colonies out of the tank
For now this is it, when today when I get home I will take a FTS of the final result with clear water.

Awesome tank! Following along to keep track of your progress. I also loved the pic of how organized everything is inside of your stand. Feel free to post more pics of that too.
