Thanks. A brief description of the setup, 55 Gallon tank filtered by a Rena Xp3 canister and a Whisper 60 HOB. Daylight hours from 09:00am to 19:00 by 2 15 watt full spectrum flourescents, Nightlight hours from 19:00 to 09:00 by 2 3/4 watt Coralife LED moon lamps for dim lumination on the outer ends of the tank and 2 1 watt Coralife LED Moonlight Spotlights for brighter lumination of the central region of the tank. 60 lbs of white gravel for the substrate and 70 lbs of Lace rock for the rock work. Yes, all of the plants are artificial. The live plants were too much of a pain in the arse, so I opted to go back to the fakes.

Inhabitants:
2 Cyphotilapia frontosa
2 Altolamprologus compressiceps (Gold)
3 Altolamprologus compressiceps (Yellow)
4 Altolamprologus calvus (White)
