I was told that adding more coral would be better, so i got more and added it, also added a moss ball

Hope you like

i quite like that moss ball on top of the rock idea, i have a ton of moss balls in my community tank, might nick one from there and copy you!

Nice...rocks are good for cichlids! I don't think I see many caves though...i read they need those. What about glueing some rocks together?. If you can get some flatter rocks maybe you arrange a cave pattern using your coral too and glue them together so they'll stay?! I'm not sure how coral would hold glue?? I haven't done it yet...just read about gluing rocks. I'm working on setting up a 125 gallon malawi mbuna. I'd see what the more experienced members have to say about this topic.

hi thanks for reply..

There is actually lots of caves, its just hard to see them by the pic, behind the from rocks is lot of other little ones and underneath is lots of caves and cover, i only have 5 labidos in here and am not adding anymore so it should be ok now
