Im moving my mbuna tank to my new house next week and going to be rescaping. Im wanting to add more deco. What should i add? Im planning on adding another 20lb bag of sand for sure.

15 assorted cichlid stones pack?
10 large cichlid stone pack?
More anubias?
Some sort of drift wood?
More rock like 2nd pic? (Only bad thing about that is the river those came from is close to 3hrs away so i have to wait a couple months)

When I used to keep mbuna I always tried to stack my rocks at least 2/3 the height of tank. The local landscape supply companies have dozens of different rock in every shape and color to choose from, and the best part is its only pennies for the pound. One of our local companies here even has Texas holey rock for .25 cents a pound which is a fraction of the local fish stores.

I will pm you. I will plan a road trip for rocks and red points! Holy rock is what i wanted. The only place i found it was in st. Louis for 3.50lb and they only have a couple nice pieces to choose from. The only rock i wanted last time was $150.
