First Planted tank almost finished after moving everything around 322 times.

How my tanks have changed over the last 6 months My first two tanks ever are kinda obvious. I sold the second photo for a 40 breeder then got a 55 cichlid tank. And the fourth photo a rack im working on. The last is my first tank remodeled.

I've had no issues with it so far. It seems pretty sturdy. If you need that ease of mind you could definitely fabricate something. But I wouldn't be too worried about it.

Yes! the topfins 35 inch glass canopy fits perfectly only 30 dollars as well

I don't have those in this tank those are in my other 5 tanks, I was just listing those to omit those fish as options because I was looking for fish I don't currently have.

I do have some filter media in there, those goldfish just speed up the "instant cycle" but they will be going to my friends oscar. Thanks for the suggestion! I have bosemani rainbows in a different tank. Any ones in particular you like most?

I'm currently cycling a new 40 breeder tank. This will be my sixth tank. But I'm extremely indecisive. I wanted to do a Chidongo saulosi colony but there sold out everywhere. I was thinking about a pair of convicts but now I want the tank somewhat planted. In other tanks I already have...

Thanks for the advice! I was leaning towards blue acaras. As far as the geophagus brasiliensis how fast do they grow. Because my buddy has those and they're pretty big.

I should have explained I'm not putting all of those in my tank. The only forsure ones are one or two blood parrots. But out of the list which ones would fare best with the blood parrots.

Thanks for the reply! I've been soaking it for a few days now. I took a piece out scrubbed and rinsed it and went to dry it with a paper towel and it stained it brown no matter how many times I rubbed it. Seems like this particular tile has ALOT of rust on it. Most of my pieces are 50-70%...

I just bought a 55 Gallon tank I'm Currently cycling and wanted to know some other cichlids that would be compatible with one or two blood parrots. For as popular as they are there's not much information I can find on their tank mates. And articles on google I take with a grain of salt as they...
