I'm in the same boat as you when it comes to my rocks and cichlids. Ever since I first put the rocks in my tank I change them around all the time. But I'm sure with some time you'll find the right place for them.
I just also wanted to say that this is an interesting thread, and I am eager to see how all of this turns out. I've just upgraded to a 60gallon for my lil buddies and am more excited than ever to get my tank up and going because of this thread. Again keep up with the awesome work and hang in there, I'll keep swinging by and help how ever I can. =)
 
Well, thanks rugby!!

I spose I am done for now, I think even though I know they will dig em up and mess with em, I am going to go and get some Vals and Java fern with some of the store credit I still have. Not sure I'm really happy with the look I have for now, but I am going to go on and add the water and look at it for a day..then maybe I can come up with something to make me happy. Oh and I'll add my black back ground too, maybe that would help.

I think you should do what you said earlier, to make a huge pile on either side, then gradually sloping it down to the other side. Do you know what I mean? Tanks always look better with ablack background. :)
 
I think it looks really good G! Can't wait to see it with fish in it!;)
Thanks KY! I can't wait for the fish either!

Yeah..I was trying and I think I'll try again later or tomorrow. I do like the black backgrounds best too!
 
I like it alot. Once ya get it filled and the background on it will look very nice. Lots of nice pockets and swim throughs for the fish too. :thumbsup:
 
Well, thank you guys! I'll get the back ground on it and see if I don't start to like it a bit more:)
