I am only guessing, but it sounds that it may work if it is heavily planted. I have not been able to make it work, even with plants that were "suitable" for Mbuna. Would that help, if it were stocked big time?

I guess I had not thought that it was that big of a deal to have the slate pieces leaning against the glass. I figured that the real weight is on the bottom, and I have seen some crazy stuff that glass can handle. Maybe I should rethink leaning the rocks.

Hard to tell but there are 25 fish in 125g and 19 in the 55g -Mark.

Have not posted in while. Fish are growing, no new fish (except pic number 1) and other than many batches of homegrown fry in growout tanks. I have been lurking and hope to spending more time posting. -Mark.

Brichardi and ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!:D:D:DYou maybe able to mix in a large tank. But in a 37g not much---- once the breeders are paired up.

I did not want to to pile on, but I really did not like the castle thing unless the room, perhaps, had a medieval theme. I like what you have done.

I tried it with a mixed peacock/mbuna. Did not work. I may try again now that I have split them up.

very nice. thanks for sharing.

thanks

you might want to add a larger pleco. they seem to do fine in all my African tanks. I have found that it helps to redecorate when adding fish. it throws off the delicate, territorial balance just enough for the new fish to move in.

nice tank.:)

Here is the a series of pictures: from bare, to first thin coat to fifth thin coat of flat black latex paint. Then a couple of pics of the finished tank. plus as a special MFK viewer bonus, a picture of 39g painted back. If I ever have to temporarily tear down my 125g, I will be painting the...

not for a long time. Technically the porous ceramic does clog with "stuff" cutting down the huge amount of surface area, thus sightly limiting the beneficial bacteria colony. so maybe after years of use you may want to exchange some. I end up splitting the current ceramic, seeding a new...

cool. nice pics!
