I dove deep to the depths of a local lake and removed this, no but really I got lucky and found it on eBay. The best part about it was that it was already in a aquarium for several years. So I didn't have to do any conditioning to it. I also decided on lake Malawi cichlids for the tank with 2...

That's a tree stump with roots in the middle of the tank. The center of the stump is also hollow so it gives the fish a spot to hide out. What species of fish do you guys and gals recommend for this tank?

Here is my 75 gallon just filled, so I can start planting. Then in a couple of weeks with stock with fish.

First can you combine ciclids with clown loaches and hillstream loaches in a 75 gallon tank? Also how many hiding spots should you provide for your fish in a tank? I provided a picture of my setup so far,please feel free to input your advice on my setup so far. Thanks

My next question would be should I fill the tank before planting some plants or after it is filled and the water has cleared up.

yeah that's a cave that goes to about 3 inches below the sand, also the center of that driftwood has a cave that the fish can swim from the bottom to the top.

Here is the pics with lights on and no water.

here is a pic with the light on and 1 step closer to getting filled with water.

Here is how the tank is so far with out water. Let me here your opinions for aquascaping. Thanks
