Just a few pics of my tank. Just added the driftwood to the tank which looks to be a big hit with the fish.

Awesome tank, I really love the way the driftwood is leaning on the rocks.

My kids love the fish as well. I think its a wonderful way to tech them about the environment, biology science, chemistry, and of course responsibility. :)

Thanks. I wanted to make it like a rift tank where wood gets caught up in the rocks from currents. My kids love my tanks and love to feed the fish. They are so amazed of the personalities of cichlids.
 
Stock consists of 2 yellow labs, 4 acei's, 2 ruby red peacocks, 2 red zebras, 2 demasonis, 2 marlieri's and 2 Kenyi's. Yes is stocked a little crowded but I'm upgrading to a 150 hopefully soon

I love mine. When I had my 125 I bet I had 40-50 easily and my wife named each one of them. I miss my big tanks. Can't wait to get a 180g and then I'll have 2 cichlid tanks :)
