Idk about the look you prefer but I bet those mbuna will think they've died and gone to heaven in there. I know you're iffy about live plants but some fishing line and anubias tied here and there around the sides and top would look awesome. You've got plenty of light for them and they are...

Ha, I don't know about that but I'll take it. Been fun so far still and still got plenty to go.

The plants I have are all low tech low light. I've never had live plants either and so far my large SA cichlids haven't bothered them and the mars 165w lights are way more than needed for them.

Nice here's an updated pic of my tank currently. I took out the strawberry planted for now, I like the left side with the Anubias tied to the manzanita. Thinking I'll build the main feature in the back 2/3 on right, outward. Suggestions? I have two more awesome looking two tone manzanita...

Not bad, what are you using to secure rocks? Or is it a natural resting cave?

One of my EBA males has damaged anal and dorsal fin. The anal fin actually started as a pin hole and has since turned into what you see below. If it's an injury will it eventually grow back or should I be treating him for something? He is otherwise very healthy and spawning for the second...

Someone suggested the hi lumen one for my 40b planted. It should be here next week I'll let you know once I try it out.

That's perfect, just ordered. Thanks for the info.

I might pay you to come reseal my 180. Have silicone will travel?

As for par and all that technical stuff I don't know, whatever par would be appropriate for a 40g depth breeder with moss balls, java moss and micro sword assuming light would be set a few inches above water

Moderate to low

My wife is setting up a 40g cherry shrimp colony and will probably use a few moderate to low light plants maybe a few high light not sure. I don't really want to use a hanging fixture so one with enough juice to grow most plants but under $100 and top mounted would be awesome. Any suggestions...

Mines a 5 gallon it looks like, I haven't tried it on its side yet either maybe that will work.

They were in my backyard from previous owner but I saw some at lowes last time I was there. I like the cave idea, not sure if I'll leave mine in or not. Cutting in half might work, the fish love it, but it takes up a lot of swim area

I agree with the 750gph per 1" drain overflow, I've got a 1375gph pump wide open on my 180g and it's pretty much got both my overflows maxed. Could maybe handle a little more so it's almost dead on the 750 in my estimation.

Yeah I have it it's great.

True forgot about shipping might be worth upgrade to prime account. Free shipping

50lb bags for $29 on amazon not to bad. A lot cheaper than I paid per pound https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00M4Q6MPK/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1492037479&sr=8-7&keywords=CaribSea+Aquatics

Yep, can't argue with the coralB fry system if there is a better way I haven't seen it.

I put mom in the tank temporarily and she is still in full on battle mode with any fish that comes near the strainer.

Ha ha, about 200 EBA's. Haven't been able to round up the other group in the 40b yet but there's about 75 more to come.

It's "river crystal" sand

Super Naturals which I think is caribsea. It was a little pricey but the geo's love it, looks like they are puffing smoke from their gils 24-7. I have 9 20lb bags in so far might add another later

Really digging these mars aqua lights check out my emerald green algae growth on resin. Looks cool as long as I can control it I guess...

I'm not breeding, I'm more "happen to be a few males and females in the tank" and with guppies you know what that means. I guess they all look the same to the untrained eye was just curious how one would judge a difference, I should have guessed bloodlines I guess there is no other way really...
