I give yours an 8. I like the river rocks and your light fixture, but I hate the green filter tubes. I was gonna get an eheim canister once, but the tubes threw me off. My brother has those same plants and he says his mbuna leave them alone, hornwort I think, right?

Thanks Those green tubes... But the filter is just wonderful. I'm going to replace them with black tubes as soon as I can find ones that will work in a shop somewhere.
The plants are actually bacopa monnieri - don't ask me why the mbuna don't eat them, but they're clearly doing alright. I added the first one intending it to be salad within a couple of days. I've had hornwort before, the mbuna don't eat them - but if you don't like floating plants all over, they're not a good choice. They will find a way to rip them out of the substrate and move them.
I give the last tank an 9, its a little high but i just like the simplicity of it it all flowes together nicely. Great job wsp
Well here ist the 125 finaly has water in it and will be pulling out all the driftwood, rock amd fake plants and going with all new rock and lots of it for africans. but here is what i have set up so far. Just some dither fish right now to speed up the cycle.
it's cloudy right now sorry but painted background and sump filtration system.
Hi Jeremy, looks great for an iphone pic. I'd give it an 8. You might try adding something to the foreground or uploaded a couple of other photos so we can get a better view. Your fish must be happy with all of the hiding places you've provided.
Forgot to add a pic of my tank to be graded. Here's a pic from my phone of a 40 I just setup. I'm planning on removing/replacing the plant in the foreground. Thoughts?
JD.. sweet discus and I love the room divider... I would give it a solid 7 just for the clean, simple, and happy looking discus.... I like a little bit more environment for the fish, plants, taller wood, etc... but I also like open space.... either way sweet tank... and I love lion king..
Here is my 55 gallon... it is now growing out some Nics to hopefully get a big pair... I need to work on hiding the equipment a little better... have a couple other tanks I can post up later on too...
Rating the tank for SND here. I'll say 8, if the slate was a little better stacked i would have given you more. Heres mine, no fish yet, picking up a breeding group of 12 demasoni in 2 hours.
Thank you! :wink:
Yep, made it myself. 14 days of hard work .
Actually, Im writing the "manual" for everyone who like's it. I will post it in couple of days. Have a look in here for some photo samples http://www.cichlid-forum.com/phpBB/view ... p?t=242366
I give 9 to Cerdik, very nice tank and nice background!
And 5 to parrotkeeper. Try to remove the background and replace some stones to give the tank simpler look - place only one kind of rocks, preferably some gray or other dark round stones and the tank will look much better! But thats only my opinion.
^^^you guys have some sweet backgrounds and rocks to match....very impressive.
