I was looking all over for driftwood like that.
Nice piece... I'll trade you a bunch of live plants for it lol.
what kind of filter is on it? Do you have two? Any powerheads? Can't really tell.

As of right now the only filter on it is a Bio-wheel 350 but I have an Ehiem 2026 canister filter being shipped to me as we speak. The substrate is a mix of 50 lbs of silica sand and 35 lbs of pea gravel. As soon as I saw that piece of driftwood I had to have it I might of over paid for it but I think it was well worth it. And finally the fish I was thinking of where a couple of Salvini cichlids definitely, and something along the line of an Jack Dempsey, Firemouths, or a Green Texas but I'm open for suggestions.

I have a Jack Dempsey and a Texas Both are beautiful but those blue jacks are really something. I also have a salvini who is a real cool fish and very colorful and does great with the tex and the jack

The electric blue dempsey is exactly what I was thinking of, my LFS is getting them in about every other week I just don't want to spend that kind of money on one only to have it get killed.

I used to have a Texas, a Jack, and a Jaguar cichlid all in the same tank (125) and they seemed to get along well enough. They picked out their parts of the tank and didn't cause a ruckus.
