40g cichlid tank build

Looks fantastic the only thing I think that would maybe make it look better would be moss growing on the rocks.

It still looks really good without, it was for sure a long build but a good one at that and it turned out great. Job well done with great planning, you should pat yourself on the back

Neat rocks, but they completely overpower the tank & take up a lot of space which could be useful to the fish. I think you would've done much better with less bulky rocks like shale. Hope you don't mind the critique!

Nice to see a planted cichlid tank =)

I was going to go for some smaller ones around them and on these are kinda a base the 2 on the bottom curve in wards so they have places to dig and hide under them but thanks helps me get it perfect
