Hey Everyone,

I have recently set up a 225g (6'x2'x2.5') Tank. It is currently running and the fish are all happy. The current stock list is:
10 F1 petrochromis bulu point
7 F1 Eretmodus "Blue Spot" Zambian
a pair of Wild Tanganicodus irsacae Kigoma

I am planing on adding WC Tropheus soon. My hope is to get:
20 WC Tropheus bulu point (cherry spot)
20 WC Tropheus RR, Ilangi, PR....
(I have yet to make a decision on the second variation)

The filtration are two 100 micron filter bags for mechanical filtration in a 44 gallon sump. Along with two stelth 250w heaters, two lifeguard Fluidized Bed Filters for biological filtration, a bag of charcoal with water running over it for chemical filtration, a Aqua UV 15w uv steralizer, and two Gen-X PCX 40 return Pumps.

What do you guys think?

Thanks
