Finally, my 55g mbuna tank!!!

Looks great Efors! Great choice of light gravel, the rocks are very nice, as are the stacking job, and I love the driftwood. I like that the tank is a bit unbalanced in the rockpile heights, and the driftwood captures your attention. That is, of course, because I cannot see the fish swimming!
Great fish selection, should be minimal aggression with that stock, and good numbers of each. Awesome!

LOOKS very nice, are your rocks sitting free or adhered to one another, i ask because i have a 55 setup with a similar setup using flat faced rocks and my buggers have knocked over some against the glass , my rocks are on the bottom with sand put in after construction , as they are diggers.
Wow, it was a surprise to see my tank here, again!
Thank you, people for all your nice comments! As an update I can say that after 5 1/2 months, everything is going great. The fishy guys have started to breed; right now I'm raising 1 acei fry and 2 rusty fry and today I can see another female acei holding; it seems they liked yesterday's water change. And RUSTY386, the rocks are just carefully stacked and no problems so far; but they are directly over an egg crate that is on the tank's bottom; finally the substrate was added.

Very nice tank! I also love the driftwood in the middle. Looks like we have a similar stocking selection? 
Any updated pictures?

Thank you, myswtsins! I will try to post updated pics soon. The most important change in the setup is that those naughty kids didn't let the plants to grow. They broke every single new leaf that tried to grow, so I had to remove the plants. Now I have a few fake Vals that are doing a good job serving as hiding spots and fry refuge.
