I love your setup, it's very striking and pleasing to the eye. I'd love to see even more pictures :)

God Bless,

From what i've been told and experienced myself, you can get rocks to stand like on their own, but most people wouldnt chance it, and use silicone.
 
Looking great man :) adding any more species?
thanks. i wasnt planning on adding more as its only a 185 litre tank so not a big tank at all for mbuna.

thanks.
its a pain trying to get pictures of these as there so fast and never stay still. i will get lost of pictures after christmas once i get a full height and mini tripod

Very nice pic. WOnderful tank.

thanks

Very nice tank. :good:
seems empty for a african cichlid tank. lol

it does look empty.
main reason is that not all the fish are ever out at once as there hiding away behind rocks (even thought there not many in there to be honest)

Great Tank!!!!!!! Im almost blind from looking at pic 3, he is very pretty( and bright).

lol the flash ruined the picture to be honest. it just happend the i was playing about and he stayed still for a second.

Nice tank :good:

Did you use silicone/attach the rocks together?

thanks
nope i didnt use 1 drop of silicon at all. the rock are sturdy. only one rock fell but that was because i i wedge the hose there when refilling the tank and pulled one down (no damage though)

good looking tankow many kg's of rock do oyu have in there?, and are you adding any more species?

i havent got a clue how much weight is in there. my mum wouldnt stop worrying when i was half way though and said i still have more to do. i used big rocks from the garden centre. i bought 9 and used about 5ish (broke them all to get good bits and threw the rest on the garden rockery.

im not planning on adding any others due to the tank size and the limited species i can have/choose from

Neat looking tank. I really like the rocks :). Pretty fishies too.

thanks

good job! :good: would do nice with some bottom dwellers though :D

im considering a bristlenose pleco or 2 to help with algea

Very nice.. The fish are lovely and the rocks look great :good:

thanks
