So far so good Brian. Maybe move the rock away from the glass a tad bit, makes vacuuming easy.

+1, and also remove the sand completly or add more, you are perfectionist Brian !!!

Excellente'

But a question?? no top??

Another question? What happens if you like this Tropheus tank waaay big time..... Will you get the 8 footer 300 gallon next??

I think you have a great setup.... that you will enjoy fantastically!!

The moon lighting was fantastic!!

Wonderful rich looking stand...


Constructive ideas....

A good background would be helpful in hiding all the wires. either a rocked background or a blue foil type... or something...

Do check the fish quite frequently to see if they are getting nicks and scrapes on the body... the rocking may contribute to some sharpness issues.

Move the heater to a side so that it is not standing out of place in the aquarium.. Maybe have it laying on the side close to the bottom of one of the rock piles...

Other than that... it looks cooolioooooo

Looks good Brian. Hope the filters work out for you.

I echo bills comments.

Now we talking! Pictures is what I want.

Nice start Brian. Like Jim said I would move the rocks away from the side glass just a little.

But the two rock pile is exactly how I would set up my tank.

Nice trimless look too.
