Aquarium Advice Freak
So a friend of mine gave me a 55 gallon tank and I'm trying to decide what to stock. I've been to all the LFSs trying to decide...but I really just get more confused. Most of the African cichlids you find are too young to have color...so that really hasn't helped. I'm pretty sure I'd like to stay with Africans...but I'd like some guidance please. I know I need to over filter and overstock...I have an Aquaclear 110 already for it...what should go with that? I was given a green canister filter with the setup but I do not recognize the brand...so I have no clue what that's about. I have several pieces of petrified wood I was thinking of using as rock...is this safe? I know I'll be using sand as substrate...prob black to show off their color best. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated...thanks!!
