in order 2 b a show tank must have impeccable water

i have a 125 gallon with african cichlids almost 30 of em.(babies for now) and i have a sump rated for a 200 gallon aquarium 2 biowheels both rated for 75 gallons

@usuallysingle well this tank has a fluval FX5 whick is good for 600 gals and 2 emperor 400's each good for 90 gals... so not sure what your point is...

[usuallysingle]

@greenearthlawns im calling bullshit on that sorry. but ur tank is too dirty for 600 gallon rate filter

i have 350 gallons worth and mine is about 4x cleaner. i now have a video of mine. watch it

[greenearthlawns]

@usuallysingle fyi algea is not dirt and is good for african cichlids... if you dont like my vids then dont watch and dont comment... thanks

[amorning1976]

you will have serious hybridization issues.

[greenearthlawns]

@amorning1976 this is not the breeding tank... which is why it is labeled show tank...

Very nice tank you got here. And to the ones that posted that there is not enough space or caves, its actually not a bad setup. Cichlids need to be overcrowded to disperse aggression and in the wild they school like this too. And providing caves sparks aggression cause it gives them something to fight for. Having no caves gives them no reason to fight.

Not what I expect a show tank to look like, but you did show it.

[borhanus]
