hlu279 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 A couple of weeks ago I started my first mbuna tank. Its the day before my water change so quite a bit if crud lying around. Some photos http://s1158.photobucket.com/albums/p609/hlu279/ all photos taken with my ipod so not that great. video The tank. 200l, 100cm long 50high 40 deep The tank is running a aquis cf1000 filter, that has been working great Has to 38watt t5 lights that came with the orginal tank, One is white in colour and the other is purple. One 200watt aquaone heater, provides pretty stable heating for tank. Rocks were bought at a landscaping place along with the silica sand used in this tank. ph level of the water is 7.6 which is pretty good in my opinion without using any buffers in the tank Fish. 17 demasoni and 9 electric yellows fish are around 3-4cm some maybe larger. all provided by ryanjury, great supplyer love the fish! 1 bristlenose plec and 1 albino bristlenose similar size of 6-7cm maybe haha not sure cant really tell. feeding nls grow formula, hikari algae waffers and the occasional cucumber.

Zev Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Nice - could you post the img tags instead of the link address, that way they will show in the post. The IMG tags are the bottom option in the Photobucket share dropdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishkeepa Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 looking good, love the tall rocks on the right Are you planning to get any other species in the future or just concentrate on the ones you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlu279 Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Thanks everybody Are you planning to get any other species in the future or just concentrate on the ones you have? I think for now it will just be these fish maybe later on when these are grown more might trade some . Unfortunately I think I am only aloud the one tank as I am only 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
