| About Yourself: |
I think I am getting addicted to this hobby! I have two tanks set up now and want more! I would like to build a 200+ gallon tank...and also have a custom African tank... |
| Advice: |
Test your water and do 25% water changes every week...& I mean every week! Buy a Python water changing system, it is a must have item and makes water changes no problem at all...No more buckets!! |

| Description: |
75 gallon Marineland tank with an Eclipse filter & light system... 48"L x 20"T x 18"W...we bought a wider tank so that when the fish get bigger they still can swim freely. The Tinfoil Barbs & the Red Belly Pacu grow to about 12" in length... |

Our 55 Gallon Mixed Mbuna Tank |
| Quote: |
Know what you want, and Go For IT! |
| About Yourself: |
My husband is the one that always wanted an aquarium, so I grudgingly agreed that we buy a small one...on the condition that he's in charge of it! After a couple of months I was just crazy about our fish, and we upgraded to this 55 gallon mixed mbuna tank. Now I just love researching, aquascaping and keeping busy with my cichlids! |
| Advice: |
Be an educated consumer. Research and ask lots of questions before purchasing... |

| About Yourself: |
This is my first African Tank. Kept some Oscars and Severums back in the day(1991-93), but I was moving all the time, and left my tank with an apartment mgr. so I didnt have to move it again. Been pretty lucky with this tank, as I have not lost any fish yet.(Except for the three Leopard Danios that were in there to start the cycling). I think the female Johanni got them. Hope you guys like my setup, I am always open to new ideas, so if anyone has a suggestion, let me hear it. I am considering a cannister filter in the future, but I think what I have now will suffice. Maybe some better lighting as well.

I tried to keep the tank as natural looking as possible. It is really hard to take a good picture of a hexagon tank. |
