MAXreefer's Elos Mini

[MAXreefer]

A few weeks ago I pulled the trigger and ordered the Elos Mini.
I have been looking for a nice Nano that fits the style of the family room. I wanted also more the "all-in-one" as I don't want to have cables and all kind of other equipment everywhere. Having to travel a lot for work it should be easy to maintain also.
I have been going back and forward between several nano rimless systems and just felt in love with the sleek design of the Elos.
Agreed it is not the cheapest system (and you pay for the Elos logo) but it has just that special something. At least for me.
Also I got the Elos e-lite LED lights. Even being a big fan of the AI LED's and their quality the module is just to big to match the sleek design of the Elos.
For my purposes the Elos light will be the optimal. I liked also the ATI Powermodule a lot but I wanted to avoid the light reflections around the tank and needed a light that just lights up the tank and nothing else.

Besides the Mini I got the following:

Controller

ReekKeeper Lite
RKM SL-1 Module expansion for PH probe and ATO
Digital Aquatics Double Float Switch Kit w/ Mounts​

Powerhead

Vortech MP10 (running in reef crest mode)​

Filtration:

15lbs of fully cured Fiji, Marshall and Bali LR
Chemi-Pure Elite​

Substrate

20lbs of Aragonite Live Sand Fiji Pink​

Below a few pictures of the setup and initial landscaping:

Initial Sump setup

I got those silicon trivets from Target to place under the pumps to eliminate vibration...WORKS GREAT!!

Here are a few pics from my progress. My goal is still the same..Want to keep it clean and simple. No SPS planned in this one...Still not sure if I will keep everything the way it is now...

I'm thinking about buying one of these what do you think of the LED lighting that comes with it? Also does the light give you the option of a night light?
