    Cool New Freshwater aquarium

    Its not saltwater but I still like it.

    My new RR 90g tank. Going to be African Cichlid all Male Peacock and Hap aquarium. Just setup today so I have a little cycle to go through. No fish yet, but they will be nice.

    Thanks

    The guy I bought it from did wood working on the side. He built the canopy and side cabinet to match.

    Nice! I have a 55 gallon yellow lab species tank at home, love the character of those fish and watching the mating rituals. Have you decided on a stocking list?

    Outstanding! Can't wait to see the progress. I need to move the 180 from my garage. I'll be doing the same thing. Mine will be all lake Malawi cichlids. I need to touch up the tank stand and canopy first. Where did you source the holey rock from?

    The huge 80lb rock on the left Ive had for a few years, has been in my pond. The others I drove out to keller material. They were out of the bleached so I bought it covered in dirt with plants growing in it. Needless to say I cleaned the hell out of it and bleached it.

    Thanks Ace.

    As far as to do list.

    I still have to put in my IceCap 606 with VHOs and setup my AutoTop off. This tank should have a heck of a lot less evap than my reef did.
