Today I took they time to do a full rescape of my 125 mixed African cichlid tank. Overall took my about 3 hours of work. I started by removing all of the plants and shells. Next was pulling 250 pounds of lava rock (that's before it's put underwater so probably double that in total weight since lava rock is so porous). Then I caught out three holding females. 1 dragons blood which spit about 60 fry, a random female which spit another 15 fry and my yellowtail acei which is in a seperate tank till she's ready to be stripped. After that excising drained about 80% of the water and vacuumed the sand. Then started to refill and rescape the tank. Here's what we've got.
