Hey AA!
Just redid my 55 since joining AA I have been inspired to give my fish a better home. I just added a bunch more cichlid stones and rock. This is my first attempt going past a few fake plants and a rock or so, I think it came out good.
I packed the rockwork in a bit more since all the cichlid stones are hollow, and there are tons of ways to swim thru it. Its so cool when they go in one side of the formation and come out the other and I have no idea how. I wanted to try a live plant also so there is a java fern in the front. I think this tank is gonna look even better once all the rocks get some algae growth and get some more coloring on them. That way the natural and manmade rocks will blend better. Right now the new cichlid stones are really light.
Here are some berfore and after shots. As you can see in the last picture, all 15 fish are completely hidden in the rockwork, they only come out to feed really lol so I think they love it!
