Here is a couple still shots of the 125g Malawi tank. I'll add a video soon. My b/f is sleeping don't wanna wake em'.

I definitely don't have the best or coolest tank, but it's cool to me!

This was mine... until about 2 months ago. Had a mix of 18 acei, 15 yellow labs, 7 kenyi, 4 bumblebees, 5 red zebras, 3 auratus, a couple haps and peacocks. I think that's all.

Ist is my 90, 2nd is my 140 mbuna tank just set up this weekend this two need tweaking. Moved everything around this weekend. 3 rd is my crowded tropical tank, but waiting for my fluval fx5 to come for my 140 g then i can put my Rena on my other 55 to separate them out... we also have a cichlid baby tank and my son has convicts in his room, his tank is clean but his room is a typical 16 yr olds!
