Hello everyone. Well this tank is about a week into the cycle, and I would really like to finish all the decorations before it's time to stock. I'm going to add more (fake) grass stuff on the sides soon, but the tank is definitely missing some cover and a backround. I'm planning on stocking it with Rams/Apistos. I'm going to have to add all fake stuff because I don't feel like messing with real plants, and I would like some Silver Dollars. What do you guys think?

I like the way it looks. Very natrual. Id add some malaysan (sp?) driftwood to it, and get at least one fancy pleco for the tank. Good start tho to the tank.
 
Nice.
 
looks like someone is off to a great start
 
I absolutely love the rock structures.
 
nice..
are you going to take out all rocks when doing a water change?
add some cardinals... hehe
i've said that 3 times today :evil_lol:
maybe angles??
yeah that would be cool..
angles and apistos (or rams)
and lots of cories (10)
 
I like the rock work too. more plants will really make it nice.

Q
 
Yes, I love the rocks too..............
 
I was thinking about adding a long piece of driftwood, but that wouldn't provide much cover for the cichlids. Do you guys think maybe adding a large pile of rocks in the back middle or possible clay pots would give enough cover for 6-10 dwarf cichlids?
