Tank Setups

I would say to get rid of those sunken ships and put two large rocks in, one on either side with one big flat rock on the floor of the tank in the middle.

Here's one of mine:

lose the clay pipes, get rid of the wall post in the middle, and maybe increase the footprint a little bit, that guy on the left looks a tad cramped.

Oh, and where's that Astronotus homosapienatus I used to see swimming around in there??

TFG, If I'm correct, isn't that all one tank?

Lol it is all one tank with a 42 square foot footprint. And I send my kids in to clean the glass now!

Ha! I bet they don't enjoy that one bit do they

nah, kind of cramped, actually that's an old pic, all the pipes are gone and most of the fish.. All South American cichlids now.

8 for the tank above me. My picture is a crummy cell phone picture, but hope someone votes on it.

6 for the tank above, not the most natural looking rock placement, but the cichlids would still love it!

Jarrods - Nice setup I would give it a 7.5. I like the split layout of half rock and shells, maybe try hiding the tubes(black ones)\heater more and I personally like the rocks not stacked that hight but its very nice.

Here is the latest redo to my setup. I just switched from mixed to black sand and gave up on live plants and switched back to fake silk ones.

Idea is to rate the tank above you.
