SloppyJ's Extra Sloppy 93g Rimless Build

[Trenbolone]

Stand looks good brah, seems like everything is coming together nicely. Keep it up, can't wait to see the final product!

 

[SloppyJ]

Thanks tren! I got the first coat of kilz on the inside of the stand yesterday and I did a little test strip of staining.

I found a full gallon of wiping stain in my attic from where they did our cabinets when we first bought the house. I like the way the stain set but I'm going to leave it on a little longer before wiping it off. I hope to create a darker appearance.

Are you going to run this tank with 1 Radion? Or will you supplement with a couple of T5's? I am hoping to upgrade to a 93G next year and was hoping to run a couple or Radions supplemented with T5's, or one Radion supplemented with at least 4 T5 tubes.

 

[SloppyJ]

For now I'm going to run the one radion.

 

[Longnose Hawkfish]

Did the radion come in??

 

[SloppyJ]

It's at my LFS right now. We have a club meeting there on Sunday. I'm picking it up then.

 

[SloppyJ]

My RLSS R6i will be here on Monday as well.

 

[Longnose Hawkfish]

Awesome!! Take pictures for me when you get it! also could you let me know if you think it will cover your 93 cube complety? Thanks!!

 

[SloppyJ]

I won't have it set up for a few weeks.

 

[SloppyJ]

Here's where I'm at. Just have to finish the top and outside. The stand is upside down btw. I was painting the top inside of the stand.

Woot can't wait to see it going bro!

 

[Fishlee]

Nice where did you order your rlss r6i from ?

 

[SloppyJ]

I got my skimmer and light through my LFS. I know he got in with Salty Supply just to get the skimmer for me. I believe they are the only ones with them in stock right now.

 

[SloppyJ]

Here's my ext rail I'm going to mount my radion to along with some random return plumbing.

 

[DSP]

I saw your radion at the store, It's waiting for you bro!!! Lol

 

[ronnie]

Imma go borrow the Radion and replace it with an old PC light. I doubt you'll notice much difference.

 

[DSP]

Hey I grew lots of coral with some old pcs! lol

 

[SloppyJ]

It's taken everything for me not to go down there and pick it up. Has stu opened it up yet?

Didn't look like it was opened to me.
