Dr Pepper is what you mix spiced rum with.

Blasphemy! Tar and feather him!

Stand is painted, tank is painted... waiting on the doors to finish drying after some touch up and I get to try and put those back on. Yay... I set my Kessil on top just to see it lit up. It looks good.

All white

All blue

Under with all white

Are you putting the doors back on before you paint the inside?

Katrina71 · Oct 12, 2017

Blah blah black. Shaking my head. You do live close enough for us to actually show up.

SashimiTurtle · Oct 12, 2017

It's not black anymore... still a little damp.

Nice job so far!

Welcome to the Deep Blue Sea, @revhtree. Thank you, glad to have your approval!

Katrina71 · Oct 12, 2017

Love the color!

SashimiTurtle · Oct 12, 2017

Well, it's all back together except for the plumbing. I have an order from BRS coming in next week and we should be able to start cycling some water then. Yay!

Now to clean up that cabinet...

Had my first Dr. Pepper in about 20 years today after hearing it can be mixed with spiced rum How did I ever forget this stuff!?! Now on top of fishy door pulls i need to go buy some rum.

And yes thats me trying to wink. I just cant do it.

Nice progress on the tank! You keeping the 14 up Robin or transfering?

The contents of the 14g will get transferred, and eventually turned into a coral QT/frag tank. Gotta buy another A160 for the 35, then another for the 14g once I set it back up. Might be next year before it's ruining again. I'll need to seed some marine pure spheres for the bio filter. I've got enough room in the sump for that, I think.

Red Heads, Hot Wings, Spiced rum & Shine....Sounds like a Redneck Road House or at least a Hit country tune.
Definitely a hit build thread.........Forgot the Venison steaks

@siggy! Welcome to the Deep Blue Sea. It's 5 o'clock and the rum is fixing to start flowing. Grab your mixer of choice (as long as it's Pepsi) and pull up a chair!
