Is this an ok Malawi setup?

I cant see anyone not wanting those angels they are beautiful, but the redtail is very aggressive so you will have a hard time getting rid of him...run a post in the MFK classifieds maybe you will find someone there to take them...I gotta run one myself to give away my demasoni fry (60+) with 2 more females holding

I think it would be a great mbuna tank with all that rockwork!

I like the look of the rocks but not the tubing. Is that part of the filtration?

Nah, they're not part of the filteration. I just thought it might help a bit with the hide-outs for the fish. I might get rid of them, since I've got a few more pots which I can put in instead.

P.S- if anyone in the UK wants the angels or the redtail black shark, or the plecos, PM me!

Cheers

If you want to do a hide out made from tubing try something like this, i made this myself and im not a very handy female lol. I took a simple elbow joint (pvc) from home depot, covered it in some GE 1 silicone and rolled it in the same sand mix as the tank. I let it cure for 24 hours (or just follow directions on silicone) it looks pretty good i think, as the fish grow you can make bigger and bigger ones.

I really like the look of the caves. How long did it take to make?

Yeh! They're real nice! I think I might just do that! I saw a tank with coconut shell caves in, and was thinking of giving it a go. What do you guys reckon? Will it cause probelms to the water?

The coconut shell will drop your PH. No good in an African tank.
