Hey what about a small group of Cyprichromis? How about 2 males and 5 females? would that be too crowded in this 30 gallons or so of water and with the Synodontis in there too?

Oh I haven't been back to this thread in some time. The plants are still growing.
The C. cutteri has also settled in and his colors are much better.

I wish I possessed the level of creativity it takes to create one of these from scratch. Just looking at the pics of them is relaxing, I cant imagine how nice they look in person, especially in a place where you can lie down and take a nap.
I think that this will be a good project. He does a lot of good planning and research.
Those magnet riparium planters work really slick. The suction cup kind works alright too, but the magnets make it easier to position the plants and they are a more secure mount mount too. Here is one with a Dieffenbachia plant.

Mostly canister filters, but in my 20-gallon setup I just have one of those submersible power filters. If you lower the water level very much then you have to modify the filter pipe for use with canisters, but that's not so difficult. I have some pictures around somewhere explaining a filter pipe mod I should go dig them up.
Hi there... Very interesting composition... very relaxing I would think.. I'm sure it took a lot of planningtoo..How much work is it to maintain??? I really like the look of it... Congrats Sue
