Stunning job, congrats. Just make sure your background doesn't have any dead spots.
 
Wow!! Awesome job. Yeah, as noted above, you might add a couple of small powerheads behind the background to make sure you have adequate water movement, but other than that its fantastic. Can't wait to see some pictures with fish in it...
 
I have one power head on left side, intake of canister on right, shower from canister in middle and air stones at sides and middle in total three. Will this be sufficient?
 
Really nice tank. I've always wanted to put "feet" on my stands but chickened out because a flat bottom dispersed the weight on floor boards more evenly.

I don't know if you used any concrete on the background...if you did, make sure you monitor your PH before adding your africans.
 
Thanks every 1. yeps i did use some concrete but the PH is doing fine now. Have 4 alunocaras for two weeks now and they are doing gr8. I will defiantly post few pics soon.
 
Dear I only used cement.... no epoxy..... Plan cement just put it in water for a week change the water and good to go .... with fish.
