i will wait until the weekend and then i will put more rocks in then post more pics see what you guys think then .
thanks for all the compliments/comments
what about the weight of the rocks though is there much danger of the tank breaking if i put alot more rocks in ?

I think you'll be OK. One thing to do if you are worried about rock weight, is to put some light diffuser below the same to prevent the rocks from falling and cracking the bottom.

Yah, I agree, the 1/2 squares (they call it eggcrate) is great for protecting the bottom of the tank.

You can also use lava rock, which is nowhere near as heavy.

i have actually got 5ml perspex on the bottom , that was my idea to spread the weight a bit but i dont know if it will spread it very much ?

Nice background and a good looking substrate. Pretty much just missing the rock work. Nice variety of Africans and they are different sizes. Makes it seem more natural to have different size fish. But you got a nice show tank in spite of.

the rocks wieght is actaully a scary thought .what if they fall n brake my tank. but my mom sed (im 19) that if yu cant nok the rocks over with a cuple of flicks with ya finga then the fish cnt nok them off . if yur filter isnt aiming at any rock then it shud be okii. but do sum thing about it for precaution wise.
