Can you cichlid tank owners post pics of your tank?? I just got a 55g. and i want to do cichlids. I've heard they shred plants so I was thinking i would use slate and make different levels and caves (hopefully it works!) and maybe a few plants but I don't really know how I should do it or where to start. I'm going to use aquarium silicone so basically once they're stuck together, they're not coming apart, so I want it to look perfect! I also was thinking black gravel but what do you think? Will the black color stick to the gravel or will it kind of chip off and then i'll have like some rocks that aren't black or with pieces of color missing? I could do natural colored gravel too. Any other help would be appreciated if you think of something I should know. Thanks! I'm hoping to see some pictures of your cichlid tanks!!
