Taylor's modded 130

So i started out with a grey Red Sea Max that I ordered on Ebay for a really good deal. I then realized I really didn't like the grey, so I painted the stand black. Also, I wasn't sold on the hood or the lights that come stock in the aquarium. I had a two-piece glass top made for the top and then added a Kessil Ocean Blue.
Sorry for the crappy pics, it's a start.

one kessil is nice but i think im gonna add another one for more light.

Good looking tank. You may want to revisit the glass top because it will a) block light is not cleaned daily b) inhibit water to air gas exchange.

Yeah I usually leave one piece of glass off for the most part.

BRS has a video (in the middle of the page) on making a screen top cover that looks great and is easy to make. Great Mods & have fun with it!

Hi I am looking into getting a RSM 250 and the only problem is the color. My wife says silver is a no go. It is a great deal and, I was researching how to paint the stand and hood when I stumbled upon you post. If you could send me any tips or details of how to go about painting I would greatly appreciate it.


What kind of paint did you use? Did you use a primer? Was it a spray can or paint sprayer? How did it turn out and hold up?

Thank you!
