If that question is directed at me, eeh, you are asking the wrong person and the safety and welfare of my fish has always been top priority. Don't ask stupid rhetorical questions, especially not ones directed at me.

Whoa whoa whoa. It was directed at you but sheesh. I say that because in a community tank you're way more likely to come across problems. But some for some people who want a lot of fish or a community tank they over look that and work on a community tank.
I'm all for you keeping the fish alone or with a lady. I don't like cichlid community tanks. Way too much nonsense with their attitudes.
Right....YOU would rather, but what would the FISH rather? All that "junk" provides cover, breeding grounds, security as well as a place for other organisms to grow, such as aquatic vegetations, corals and polyps, annelids, mollusks, etc and also serves as a base for future structural build-up which can now occur naturally.
Call it "junk" and as much of an eye-sore it may be, when I go fishing, those eye-sores are the 1st thing I'm casting towards because they typically yield more fish than other places.
They are extinct in the wild and so is their environment. Nothing left but a dried-up cesspool of waste and pollution.
I'm not replicating that. Nothing even remotely close to it
Anyone who wants to give some input on the value of artificial reefs, please do -

I don't have cichlid community tanks. I have a midevil that's been alone for years and convict with a big group of barbs that picks on him haha.
It seems like you care about the fish. You named him after all haha. For me the reward is not worth the risk.
I wonder where fish managed to hide thousands of years ago before cars and coke cans appeared.
Fish can cover without the aid of man made crap.
I'm sure I'm not alone on this.
New tank, do I furnish with driftwood and water worn boulders,or human garbage?
Come on Frank,get real.

I think you are the only person talking about reefs.This is a freshwater topic.
