Dustin Pedretti Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 For those of you who don't know me or havnt seen my build thread here ya go http://www.austinreefclub.com/index.php?/topic/30552-220G-build 220G build I didn't get very far with this thing before we had to move...it was set up for 6 mo or so I have moved from Bryan / College Station to Bastrop and it's been about a month. I'm still not totally sure I'm going to set this beast up in this house because I'm afraid the floor won't hold it and we are renting and I'm not sure if we will be buying in the next couple of years (don't really want to break it down and move it all again) but I'm still working on the stand and hood until I figure out what I'm going to do...I figure I can resell it if I decide not to. This is the state of my reef life as of now my poor babies are in a little 30g tank and aren't liking it. I need to figure out what I'm doing soon if I want to keep things going good because I'm not really set up for a small system. I guess my main reason for this post is to let you guys know I'm still here, just trying to decide what to do. I'll leave y'all with what I've been up to on my single days off a week...it's slow going but it takes the stress off a bit. Setup before I moved...basically unfinished and just put together (didn't see this move coming and thought I'd have time to finish as I went) and this is what I've been slowly working over the last month I spray painted the inside with 3 super thick coats of fridge epoxy and painted the outside black the trim on the doors and corners will be stained. I need to get to work on the doors. and here's the hood getting painted and trim stained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
