I wasn't really sure where the best place to post this would be, so I decided the riverine cichlid area was good enough (there is, after all, 1 P. pulcher in there).

Love the setup, looks pretty natural to me. And I know what you mean about needing a new camera, I spend too much money on my tanks & never get around to buying one!
 
Not sure how I missed it, but darn good looking. Great selection of species as well, some of my favorites.
 
Thanks for all the kind words.
I just finished rescaping the tank... major pain in the ass because of the size of the driftwood in there and the ever growing population of water lettuce that gets tangled up on everything I try to take out of the tank. I'll have new pictures up in an hour or so when the girlfriend gets home with the camera.
