New 55 gallon Cichlid tank

[MCL169]

Ok my tank is done for the most part. Just changed from gravel to sand. Added more caves/decor. Added a hydor canister to my h.o.b. I have a mix of cichlids and right now all seems well. These are pics of my setup.

Keep your eye out on the non African species. If Firemouth continues to get bullied on please remove. I hope it works out .
