yes i do.
my reef structure bottom rock i use the heavy weight (5-8kg/pcs) & solid rock it wont move, start middle to top i choose light weight rock 1-2kg/pcs), to avoid structure collapse cause of strong wave(4x6100 & 1x6080) i secure all the join with cement, but still easy to snap by hand power if want to change. so far so good the reef structure can handle the wave.

I know everyone has said it but your aquascape is incredible. Can you explain your chiller? Did you make it yourself, and what materail did you use, and what are you using to controll it? I am looking into getting something for my tank for the summer. I live in South FL, and will have a little over 300 gallos in my garage.

thx Eric
my chill system very simple
thermocontrol/thermostat with temp probe as a brain
the breaker as on/off for the compressor.
coil is better using the titanium. in my country only available 26feet length, which is not enough for me, i want more coil inside the water to generate cool faster. so i decided just using normal aircon pipe wrap with shrink hose. the coil dip inside water 36feet length shape in spiral form.

update FTS
i dont really like the blue colour from ATI t5 blue+, i think the atinic is nicer, got purple hint on it.
i did something stupid, i forget to rinse the rowaphos, end up my sump full of rowaphos dust, also skimmate became dark pink colour

nice looking sump and filtration setup man... Nice amount of room to work as well.
Nicely done. Yeah that rowaphos can be a pain in the @$$ but it does work well. At least getting out of the sump won't be to hard. Awesome man... looking to see your progress.
