What is the best of the best, equipment wise?

Equipment aside, I'd renovate the home to install drainage, hot and cold water, and dedicated circuits with surge protection, in a 300sf room just for the hobby. A workbench safe with saltwater, cabinet storage, a fish quarantine and a Coral quarantine. Two water mixing stations sized at 20% of the system volume each. A huge sump. Extruded aluminum vslot with custom 3d printed hardware for the lighting. The list goes on.
