it isn't that big, but they absolutely love swimming under it. of course i didn't just throw random rocks into my tank. i soaked them in hot water for most of the day to get out all bad bacteria and whatnot. anyways, my cichlids love it and i am definately going to make it taller and longer. thanks everyone for the advice on what my africans would like! they are also loving the zucchini! they are all so much happier and more active!
 
i also want to especially thank Tarheels910 and all you other african lovers who convinced me to stick with my africans and not switch over to americans. they are certainly a very beautiful fish species.
 
sure. i'll upload some pics when i get the time. ^_^
 
ok, i got some pics up:

what do you think?
 
nice cave. I would get a ton more rock in there. Africans like rockwork piled right up to the water level.
 
i'm actually going to replace the rocks with slate once i get the chance to stop at home depot. them i will make a labarinth stack of slate. i will post pics when it happens.
