How many litres is it? The common pleco might out grow it.

 

[Alasse]

It's 140litres......
 
I'm putting a common BN (usually only reach about 15cm) plenty of room for one of them
 
A common pleco can get to 2ft and is in no way suitable for this size tank

 

[Blondielovesfish]

Oh right sorry I didn't see the BN part. Sorry for the confusion!

[Wiskin]

Looking good so far! Will be interesting to watch it grow.

 

[Blondielovesfish]

Make sure to keep updating!

 

[Supraman]

This is an awesome looking tank I really wanna do a planted tank for my next one

 

[Blondielovesfish]

Could you have plants for your Cichlids Supra?

 

[Supraman]

From what I've read and been told, they will rip them out of the ground cause they like to dig

 

[Blondielovesfish]

that sucks! I wonder if some Java fern or Anubias would survive?

 

[Supraman]

Possibly, I can't wait to get paid though my tank is getting a makeover haha.

We should really move this discussion though as we are kinda thread jacking.

As for the OP'a tank I really do think it looks great and I can't wait to see it stocked

 

[Blondielovesfish]

Haha yeah! Go on chat? Can't wait to see how this tank tuns out!
