Where u get the rocks from??

I got my rocks out of our river. I scrubbed them off as best I could, soaked them in hot water/javex then boiled them for 15 minutes. Little bit of work but way cheaper than buying and more satisfaction knowing I did it myself!

I did the same thing - lots of work but worth it

I did a bunch of extras that way I can change up the rock work. With the exception of the inukshuk I made.

You don't even know. I have to remove the rocks. I usually have to anyways to capture a Cichlid that's holding so two birds with one stone.

My new tank. I can't tell you how excited I am. Found someone on a local site seeking their 75 gal setup including EVERYTHING for $250. Some of these fish are 5+ years old. I can't wait to go home from work and watch them.

That's a sweet deal!! And amazing fish!!

 

[VioletGoby]

Thank you! I was shocked at the deal because I've been searching for similar setups fir a while now. For those looking on local classified sites, don't lose hope! There are amazing deals out there.

New Cichlid Setup

Electric Yellows, Maingano, Frontosa and some random tropicals that were tester fish but still cruising around the tank.
