Cichla Substrate.. I go bare... you?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thin layer of gravel.
 
I have a couple of Pbass with some Black Sand, River Rocks, and Driftwood.
 
i have sand and small rocks but am thinking of going bare bottom with just the driftwood at the bottom? i think it would be easier to clean but i would like to goto all black myself either med rocks or black pebbels mixed with black sand. what do yall think?:nilly: :popcorn: :headbang2 :D
 
I will never use sand with cichla tanks... they are too powerful and will kick too much of it up! If you wanna go through pumps and filters then use sand!

I use gravel in all my tanks... not just for looks, but also for the extra bacteria it houses! :)
