Idk she likes my aquariums but she herself has only had like one aquarium before and had a bad experience because she didn't really know how to take care of it. But this 8 gallon will be much simpler because before it was like a 30 gallon tank and was just way to much for her to maintain because she didn't really have time to gravel vac and do water changes and all that on a 30 gallon so hopefully a 8 gallon will be much quicker and easier for her to maintain. And after looking at the evolve I kinda want one... Lol so I might get one myself eventually they are very nice appearance wise

Maybe a shrimp tank would be ideal? Weakly 10% waterchanges and feeding only a few times a week

I love my evolve 8 :)
The original LEDs are a lot brighter, I just wanted a spotlight effect.

Awesome! I like the idea of keeping cichlids because you can identify them easily because they all look different and you can name them and identify them. Whereas with small schoaling fish you can't. 6 neon tetra all look the same :D

When I get a bigger tank next year (65 gallons) I'm gonna get 2 angelfish and some dwarf cichlids. I'll post full stock list if anyone's interested :)
