not to sure either i added my fish from my other tank today im gonna post them in a few mintues gotta a few peacocks with alot of females syno petricola frontosa and some other odd balls thanks for posting man!
If I were planting this tank I would move the red plant either to the left or the right somewhat - its colour makes it an obvious centrepiece so there's no need to put it right in the dead centre. Things look too symmetrical - not much in nature is symmetrical.
I would also place it (or another tall plant) in front of the intake to hide it somewhat.
Lastly, I would add some medium to short plants in the foreground to give the tank a bit of a back-to-front slope. It will increase the feeling of depth (or in this case, width!)
thanks kevin yea i just uploaded new pics to the album check it out! i added a few more plants and im getting those foreground plants very soon there also some fish pics in there! Rgr im adding some O.B peacocks soon and some calvus i love those things lol also some more petricollas was gonna maybe try some kribensis out not sure yet though
Glaneon yea i gotta finish it yet trying to find the right rock i ran tanks for years but then stopped not a fan of slate or holy rock i need something different..definitely need something though
yea i checked it out idk man its nice but im looking for something different to many tanks look identical cause of the rocks i know the natural feel is what people want but my fish always do fine with out it i have very little aggression.. im gonna have to make something to fill the void lol thanks for the tips though i love this site everyones awesome!
You might want to check out Cichlid stones by underwater Galleries . I bought the 15 pack & the fish love em. They're light and easy to move for cleaning. Sorry no pics yet.
