- 195 gallon set up (72"x24"x26") -
This is one my faves along with my SE themed 155 gal. bowfront. Low stress in dealings with the community environment thus far. Guess I've been lucky. Attached an updated video below.

- New Rack System -
* Three 55's - Mostly for Geos for now
* One 90 - Housing Hoga Pair (pic of the male - Sexy Right?)
* Another 75-90 set up underneath will come at a later time. Livestock undetermined. Maybe a pick from my stock of godmanni, festaes, synspillum, Pearsei, Bocourti, clown loaches (just kidding on tha clowns)or.........?

Finally placed the livestock in the rackers I built last weekend. Most of the work is done and securely fastened to each other and ceiling beam. I'm happy with the end result. Leveled and peace of mind, yay!

So what do you guys think? This is most of my fish collection.

Thanks gnuisance. Meanwhile, here is a vid. Just recently introduced to their new home, so the colors should be a bit more vibrant later on. I presume the honeymoon will get started soon.

Meanwhile, here is a Synspillum in my 155. Got to figure out what to do with her, or the Black Belt in my other tank (BB chases Syns all day!!!!). Had a 2nd 195 gal. for a couple weeks and was going to set up 2 Cichlid tanks, but changed plans.

In your first video with all the Viejas, I couldn't quite identify the big black fish, is that a Polleni?

And do you have a Caequetaia Kraussi in there?

It's a Polleni female. No C. Kraussi in there. It's just all CA's, 2 Festaes, clown loaches, & a Green Phantom Pleco.
