Here is a look at my progress so far. It all started with my wife's yellow belly slider turtle. Apparently, he likes having tankmates especially cichlids. Now I embarked on a journey to maintain a habitat for a motley bunch that all do fairly well with each other even if typically they wouldn't work. I think the turtle keeps a level of good behavior within the bunch. So far in the 72 bowfront tank with 30 gallon sump is...

Yellow belly slider
2-Tiger Oscars
3- Black Convicts
2-Red Jewels
2- Jack Dempseys
Electric blue Jack Dempsey
Red Devil
Green Devil
Texas
unknown
2-chinese algae eaters
2-emerald green corys

so far they look better than in any tank I've seen thus far. But I am still new to the hobby.

In fact, I do. I originally planned on going towards a min of a 110 gallon but now I'm starting to think of building a custom. Probably acrylic. Just depends on the space that I have at the time and the minimum volume I'll need.

Also, posted late last night and forgot the
