Sorry for the lack of updates. Been so busy past few month its just crazy.
I've made a change to the tanks filtration in that I've decided to take Rui's advice and install a refugium into the sump. I've put chaetomorpha into the DIY algae filter compartment lit with 2x9watt 6500K LED's. Its growing rather well. The sump still has the 10 litres of Siporax and 4 litres of Seachem Matrix. The Cheato filter sits on top of the Siporax tray and is easily removable for cleaning etc.
Pic of Chaeto filter:
For lights I am running T5 only 50:50 Blue+:Coral+ No LED. The light fixture is just a temporary hydroponics cheap unit. Its like 1/10 price of units sold for this hobby but it works fine and corals are growing and colouring up alright considering tank has just reach 3 months.
FTS (apologies for frag rack etc...its a bit of a mess at the moment):
Some coral shots:

those are some great pictures. you have some very nice coral, i love it! I also love the minimal rock scape!
What is the coral on the frag rack? looks like a big colony, why do you have it on there?
Also your sump design looks so clean and nice.

Sahin - Amazing tank to say the least. Love the aquascape and hope it turns out wayyy better than your previous masterpiece.
Got to ask you , with such high efficient filteration, how are you keeping nitrates enough for the sps ? Are you feeding anything at all like Amino acids or anything else for the sps ?

Abhishek
