I'm getting really excited for the move to the 150. I've got this crazy 'scape in my head and I can't wait for you all to see. You will be amazed.

Last night, I applied the new trim, got the tank cycling and soaking the driftwood.













Today I'm going to pick up some new rocks and a few more bags of sand. Pics to follow this evening..

Re: 150G Mpimbwe Journal

rock store was closed today for holiday hours  . the tank hadn't cleared up as much as I wanted it to, so I did another water change moved the sand from the 55 into here. i'll let it cycle until tomorrow evening, then move in the fronts.

Re: 150G Tanganyikan Journal

Moved the fronts out to the 90 by themselves. Took the chimba's and extra petro out of the 55 and put them in here with the colony. Since then the petros have come out from the rocks, swimming along with the colony of tropheus. No aggression with the added extra male, and right now my ratio is 5M/8F. I do not plan to keep this permanent. I'm working on getting another 150 at the time, so whenever that happens I'll pull this male back out.

Updated pics:











..still need a background too
