Many of you know my journey to get my 75 gallon tank for my Africans who are now in a 55 BF. well... Many of you also know I have gotten said tank!
The stand should be here Friday.
I have everything I need to transfer as I'm using most of the equipment from the 55. 2 filters, 1 penguin 350 and 1 AC 110. I did get a new heater which you can see in the pic with the tank. I have extra gravel left over and going to use the gravel from the 55.
Also gonna use the rocks,driftwood and a few not all o the fake plants.
I'm going for more of a rock scape look rather then what I have now.
My idea is to cut back on decor and allow for mor swimming room as I do have 25 African cichlids and 1 upside down catfish. I am going to get 1 more catfish a cuckoo if I can find one.
Also I will be painting the back of the tank a aqua blue color from Krylon.
The only thing that I'm annoyed about is with the holiday and weekend my Cichlid stone caves I ordered wont be here until Monday, I wanted the tank set in its place and everything up and running by the weekend.
Any input, suggestions are welcome. Stay tune as my journey to my 75 begins!!
This is my tank now.
