Finally got my main tank back running after moving

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looking good, are those sticks you just found or something special? I really like them. Also is the background 3D? I'm really digging it to.
 
very nice!!! is that a pie bald fenestratus? the twigs look O.K. but i always wonder if it can lead to injury or just take away swimming space.....
 
Looking good
 
Nice, I like how the sticks seem to hinder a chase & don't block too much viewing

The sticks are from trees in my yard. You just have to be careful what type of wood you use and they only last a few months before you have to replace them. They really hinder a lot of aggressive chasing and haven't caused any injuries from my experience. If I remove them the 12" escondido will just chase everything relentlessly around the tank. With them he cruises about and don't really chase anything. Most cichlids are not open water swimmers anyway. They prefer structure to swim through and hide in to feel comfortable.
