Nice.! I can see that I am going to have to really step up my cichlid game now. LOL My tank looks so empty and noobish in comparison to all these wonderful setups!
 
Thanks, Yes these setups are great, i feel i am going to need stepup a little as well, kids are keeping me busy from finding time to put the rock i have waiting for the tank in the tank. My tank is empty per say 13 fish in a 120, ordering Falvus and either Afra White Top Hara or Afra Likoma

Hay Kenny where did you get that rock on the right is that a Texas holey?

Hi, in Sydney. the larger rocks, including the one on the right, are fakes, best I ever saw. A hippy guy makes them in random shapes and three sizes and only sells them in Sydney oz. They resemble bluestone.
 
Nice set-ups everyone!

One of mine. One of three 100gal African set-ups; this one is mixed peacock and N. brichardi cichlids
