The following is: The best lighting for African cichlids is Blau Lumina Led 152 special reef But, you have to know how to program it, do not use automatic programming Schedule manual My aquarium is 2 meters long and is lined back and sides with panels of - Juwel So the light gets more concentrated in the aquarium To avoid excessive light and the opposite The programation: Coordinates 10 South 34 East Midday Function 15:30 Intensity Filter - 60% - yes, - 60% Lake Malawi is deep Nubellate Days, to your taste, 2 to 5%, as Africa is constant heat and rains little as we have already decreased the light intensity I recommend 2% for occurrence of cloudy days The Blau Lumina Led 152 special reef - special reef is expectular for dusk with its dimming channels - 2 actinic LED lights per plate And dawn is also phenomenal

O.K . so, since February, how many rocks have fallen from the incessant digging? Sorry, but to my minds eye when dealing with Rift Valley cichlids, you have to adhere the basement rocks to the floor of the tank. Otherwise, the Hap's and Troph's will undermine them and cause them to tumble...Just curious, I think the tank looks great, but did it stay that way?

@mozarth 5 жыл бұрын
They do dig but the sand seems fine enough to not allow them to form tunnels as it would settle itself back into a flat form. There may be small slides but I doubt there will be a major event.

Manuel Garcia sorry about your loss. Always sucks. I havnt had a single casualty from rocks falling and smashing a fish. I pressed the largest rocks down into the sand so they contacted the rocks below and then jammed the smaller rocks in around them to keep them tight. As far as I can tell, not a single rock has moved and all fish are accounted for.

cost of the aquarium itself was 3 grand??? Or everything.......... BTW great idea on the white plastic pieces you put on the very bottom. I'm assuming it both keeps the sand in place, and prevents you from killing yourself when one of those boulders slips outta your hand, and shatters the bottom of the tank!!! Had a rock slip out of my hand scaping my 125 when I got it from about 6 inches up. Of course it was one of the biggest rocks. Took me an extra hour to move all my gravel out of the way to make sure I didn't break it!!!

@All About DIY yeah once I tried the fake background, I immediately tore it off and zip tied all my cords/hoses together just to keep the clutter down. My biggest tank I've ever had was a 90 gallon. I had a 90 gallon Asian tank. A 55 convict cichlid tank and a 36 bow live bearer community tank. Now I have nothing up right now because I'm looking for a place but it's like having a dog. I can't see myself without having a dog and fish.

Hands down thats the most spectacular cichlid tank setups on youtube. Fully top class setup. No stupid plastic plants just rock and sand. I have a 150 setup with 2 penguin 400s, rock, and plain sand. All my babies have their own apartment and i have a light system that fades during the day as if becomes night and at night it slowly goes from blue to nealry blacked out to a deep purple. I had it made with a color wheel filter. But that tank is damn awsome beyond words. I love tanks that are set up like nature. You see people putting all these dumb decorations and plastic plants in and it just ruins it!!! I have a feeder tank that i keep stocked with feeders for my peacock bass and my pacu that are in my 150 and my feeder tank is a 30 gallon. Some of my feeders have managed to avoid the death net and have grown quite large and i have given them respect and allow them to live and not net them. But even my feeder tank is set up natural with sand and rock and is beautiful as well.

Joseph Allan wow! What a compliment! Thank you very much I really appreciate it! I couldn’t agree more about just having sand and rocks like nature intended for these fish. I can’t stand fake plants haha. I think we just became best friends lol. Your setup sounds great I would love to see it! Joseph, you have yourself a great day and thanks for stopping by and for the awesome comment. It makes all the hard work worth it. Stay tuned for more on this tank!!!
