Full tank pics here

After a year in our new home, I finally got the chance to set up a tank. I did have a little ten set up just to house my og Petey-Plecostomus and a gbr. When I took down my 55 a year ago all the fish were donated to the local club, but I couldn't let those two go. The ten was far from...

I'm going to be moving within the next couple months, and I think I want to start my 55 over as a Malawi tank. Naturally, I have a number of questions. 1. Does the male to female ratio depend on the species, or is there a general rule? 2. Will an xp2 and an Emperor 400 provide enough...
