Welcome to MFK.

Nice looking tank setup!!!

Have you done a fishless cycle to establish the good bacteria culture or are you planning on using a bottled product?

Very nice setup you got going there. Your off with a great start, if you haven't already started cycling that tank that would be next on the checklist.

I would get some Krylon Fusion and paint the filter intakes and output black. Other than that it looks great.

EDIT: Also get the Eheim intake up off of the sand a little, or get a pre-filter for it.

Yes the fish will remain in this 55G

The filters are from 3 year old cichlid tank, that i revamped, so the filter media has active cultures going.....

Will the Krylon Fusion paint be ok for tubing?

How many peacocks can i stock Male/Female..Kind of been out of hobby technically for awhile now

Will the Krylon Fusion paint be ok for tubing?

Yes. It is aquarium safe and will adhere to plastic.
