beautiful tank, looks like your put a lot of time and money into it and it came out perfect. i gave you an 8 if you think that is fair enough. do your cichlids eat the same thing as your bass? my bass only use to eat frozen worms and stuff and wouldnt eat the same food i fed my cichlids.

So I know that your tank is 225 gal, but I am about to get a new 29 gal tank. How much rock would you recomend getting for that? And where do you buy the rocks? Also what kind of sand is that? PS I love your tank!.

The lighting out the back of the tank is two 6 foot white actinics and one 6 foot blue actinic.(bright as the sun when you open the front doors I might add)The amazon sword in the tank is plastic.I tried live plants and the fish love eating them.Also they turn brown after a while without an O2 system.

Nice tank u have there. Do u find that the africans chew up ur amazon sword plant? Is that blue lighting outside the back of the tank?
