DUDE!! SWEET IDEA!!!

it would totally fool someone if it was a mbunas tank

after all they are brightly colored like fish of the coral reefs

and with mbunas you could use real coral branches (dead) to help keep the water hard

More misspellings in that post than grains of sand on the Earth. LOL. I no longer put shells and coral in any tank because it doesn't look natural.

Yeah, I'm also a fan of a more natural look. I did use to keep some coral fragments in one of my tanks when I bred Tanganyikans. I tried to keep them hidden as much as possible though.

YA im very very very very very very very bad at spelling and I do not like to take the time to spell check. My piranha ate the fake coral/only the pecis that glowed in the dark.
Its realy funny.
