Pics of my RE-redesigned 125

Postby Southernfryedyankee on 10 Jan 2010, 8:45 pm

As of right now I only have 35 Demasoni, 4 synodontis cats and HOPEFULLY my yellow labs will be here this week, weather pemitting. I am not sure if I will add any other 1 kind of mbuna or fish to the tank. If I do I may get either more of the dems and labs or a 6 pack of albino bristlenose plecos (I just bought 12 babies today but they are in the upstairs pleco tank)

I am currently running 3 emperor 400's and will be adding an FX5 for overkill, hey you can NEVER have to much filtration. I would LOVE to hear opinions good and bad (but respectful) on my tank.

wow. ok. nice in a way. I am not a slate stack fan.. they are hard to do and look natural.. This looks stacked.

Demasoni I take it?? mean little guys.

I would place in plants here and their INTO some places of rock and give it more color and some life.. But that is me..
Amazing what we do for our Cichlids!! Bigger tanks! And then More Bigger tanks!!

I kept Demasoni for a long time and really enjoyed having them - i replaced them with Saulosi and miss them terribly :?

The tank looks great, except as Midas meantioned - its hard to make slate look natural. My only suggestion would be more rock - but as you get to know me you'll realise that in my world there can never be too much rock (a throw back from my demasoni days lol)

When I kept those guys i constantly tried to add a 3rd group of mbuna and it always ended up in a disaster. I dont think i would try it again.

Good job on the tank and keep us informed!

Well I think it looks good. Question- how many pounds of rock is that? I hope you got egg crate or something underneath. Great job ;)
