I set up a new tank last night & wanted to share a couple pics, still have some tweaking to do but here goes.

Not the best videos, but here's 2 short clips:

I'll update when the fishes get settled in(colored up) & when I get some algae growing on the rocks.

Looks very nice mate, where did you get your rocks from? :thumb:

 

[kyboy]

Thanks, I got them from a local small river.

Nice tank. . .

Thank you, pomi & Husnain
Can't wait to see how it will look later . I'll probably trim down the #s a little on the Cyno. Afras "Nkhata Bay" & maybe the Chailosi.

Looks good.

Thanks! I am getting some algae coverage on the rocks. The Membe & Chailosi have colored up nice.

Nice tank, I like the sand and the rockwork.

good looking tank... but if you can add more smaller little rock in front for a more natural look...

 

[kyboy]

Thanks guys!
Here are some new pics. I've only got a sony cyber-shot - so I just shoot videos & hopefully snip some pics out of them (hopefully I'll get a better camera/pics soon).
Membe female

Membe male- He's skittish & gets scared when I come close (colored down a bit) :x

Chailosi male

Best I could come up with for now, thanks for looking!

55 gallon - Yellow Labs, Cyno. sp. Hara & Mel. Cyaneorhadbos(maingano)
40 gallon L - Met. Chailosi , Met. Membe Deep & Cyno. Afra Nkhata Bay

Re-scaped a little bit , added new rocks on the right side (with less algae coverage); but it's gettin there - more like what I had in mind. It will be better when all the rock work gets a good covering of algae. Here are a few pics of the tank/rock-scape using different settings & angles. Not the best pics, but ...

enjoy!

THE design is very nice but doesnt seem to have space to hide!! Is there any?

[kyboy]

Thanks! I have some new shots of the male Chailosi wanting to spawn with his ladies. Pics are not good ,but wanted to share.
