Only because no one else would, maybe ill get this thread going!!!

I put no money into my breeding setup, I breedEM to feedEM, they dont even have a light. Just good water, right of tank has a big cup and left has a pipe tunnel and rock. 20 gallon.

Then my fish room.

Hi. In my many years of fishkeeping, I have bred may species from goldfish, carps, discus, barbs, tetras, african dwarf cichlids( mbunas), oscars, angels and some others. As of now, I breed tilapia, african cats (clarias) and am looking into pangasius and peacock bass. Each of them require different set-ups and I never bred any in ornamental tanks. If you can be more specific as to which species, maybe I can help but no pics are available. The best I can do is to describe the set-up and protocol if I have already bred the specie.
 
alright guy's let's see some pic's of your setup's I'm anxious to see what all kind's of different design's are out in the monster community.

You got your stacked on setups and simple setups....Most stack-ons have a central filtration system, prtty much just like lfs tanks...The simple setup is as follows:

Bare tank
--->20-40g for small-medium cichlids(convist, sverums, Geos)
--->75-180g for large cichlids(Red Devils, Oscars, Tilapia, Bass)

Substate
--->Pea Gravel
--->Bare(most common)

Special Needs
--->Bricks, caves, fast water, driftwood....
Bricks are used for Discus breeding...Stand one on its small side and the fish will breed on it...
Caves are used by most small cichlids.....
Fast water and driftwood is needed to breed some, if not all, plecostomos......
