Well guys these are my equipments:

Two Metal Halides 400w, 12.000ºK Reeflux in lumen bright reflectors, plus two VHO 140w superactinics.
The aquarium with all the doors closed
This is my diy chiller. Made of a 8000 BTU window air conditioning, and a 1/2 hp titanium heat exchanger
This is the sump. Two 50g plastic buckets. Moved by a dart 3600 pump.
Reeflo 200 Skimmer:
Phosphate Reactor (2) Oce with activated carbon and another with GFO.
That's all. Hope you can enjoy them

For everyone to understand it will be in english!
Carlos your tank looks amazing and even more knowing how hard it is to set up one of this in Venezuela.
I recently graduated as an ME in the US were I had a couple reef tanks going, but i had to take them down since I move back to Venezuela after graduation. I been wanting to set a system here at home but I need info on the people that bring the life stock from indo and red sea. I notice that is mainly what you have. Most of the equipement I own. If you can elavorate on the history behind this beatiful tank it will help alot. It will be great if one day i can visit your tank.

2 things:
- What do you have as a back up power source? Im from Venezuela and I know there is a lot of power failures.
- Give that poor turtle a real home. Im not sure how much do you know about red eared sliders but if you knew a little you'll be feeling horrible having it in that tiny thing
, plus it seems that you can afford it too.
BTW you have lumenbright reflectors not lumenarc.
Again, really nice tank i bet people down there drool when they see it.

Very funny you two guys about the turtle. It is of my doughter
Off Topic
I promise that the turtle will have a mansion soon
Ganjero:
1.- I don't have any power back up. It is really that in Venezuela there is power failures but doesn't in my County. It is very weird.
2.- You are right I have lumenBRIGHT reflector, sorry for that mistake.

Oldude:
The hidophora is not beside the pocillopora, it is behind (about 10 4"), but the picture doesn't let you see exactly where is. I know hidnophora will kill any coral that it touches.
Jajajajajaja, very good...........
No problem, when ever you want.
If you live in Venezuela you shoud know about Mundo Marino in Maracaibo, Pajarolandia in Caracas and Seaquarium La Chinita also in Caracas. I think they have the most beautifull fish and corals.
But sometime we have the opportunity of bring our corals to here when we travel to USA. I have about 5-6 corals that were imported by myself when I was traveling to Miami. And another hane we are a big (not like you never) group that have some frag coral "interchanges" (I think it is wrote like this)
Again thanks so much for your comments.
