    Options for cichlid lighting on a 6ft tank

    125g not level

    Where to buy foam to place under the aquarium?

    I'm setting up a 125g for the first time tomorrow on a homemade stand. I've read to place styrofoam or some kind of padding on the stand to rest the aquarium on.

    125 gal stocking suggestions?

    Sorry guys. New to cichlids. Little overwhelmed. I've been trying to research but there's so many if them! I would like personable ones. Semi-large. Lots of colors. Preferably not hitler mean.

    125 gal stocking suggestions?

    Starting my first cichlid tank. 125 gal. 72x21x18 I think. Fluval 406 and eheims 2217 for filters. I'm going with pool filter sand and holey rock. Any stocking suggestions? This is my first cichlid setup. I have done tropical before. I'd like a lot of color. :)
