My SA Cichlid Obsession

Really nice work! Love your tanks.

Amazing tanks. Makes me want to redo my 240 from a frontosa tank to a SA tank. I had uaru years ago and they were among my favorite fish...only downside was no plant (not even the roots of the pothos) survived.

I am then limited by size as I can only get a tank so big through the door.

I had a similar issue with my 240 (8x2x2) but resolved it by finding someone who was able to build the tank for me in the basement on top of a stand that I built down there. My only regret is that I didn't go bigger.

I like the way you think but sadly the place I am currently living is not permanent as I will move in a few years so that is a no.

Thank you very much for the kind remarks!

Really nice work! Love your tanks.

Thank you! You won’t be disappointed if you go back to SA!

Quick update on the 110 Riparium. Got a new mother plant anubias that I still have to split into two and plant against the back, just beneath the water line. More to come.

All species getting along. Really enjoying this build.

And a few side views of the Myersi Setup. Two pairs have formed. This species requires patience but they are totally worth it.

Update on the SA Monster tank.

These are some really next level tanks. Bit of a masterclass for the rest of us. I really like that "shelf" design with the wood you do, very effective use of space.
Thanks for posting and keep the updates coming.

Stunning! No other words to describe your tanks.

Not sure if you have said already and I mist it, what lighting are you using on the riparium?

The cichla are beauties, really coming on nice.
