Cichlids new home

[prettypleco]

I put the two pairs of Socolofi and yellow Labs in their new 55 gal hex home. They are adjusting well though tend to get lost in there. I put a lot of caves and rocks in and stacked as high as i could. I plan on making a rock/cave pile as high as the hex when i get some time and more lava rock.

They really seem to like the tree trunk as it has many separate caves and they can swim up and out through the top.

Peek a boo

Tank looks great, lots of nice hiding spots, I am sure your fish will appreciate.

Awesome Prettypleco!!!! Good job!!

Thanks guys! It was kinda thrown together with left overs so to speak. I don't expect the plants to last long but they were just cuttings. They look like they are enjoying their rock pile.

I don't know about the socolofi, but I don't find that my yellow labs pick on the plants that I have - that could just be my fish though
Tank looks great, I like that tree root!

Are those tall plants alive? They are beautiful!

Yes they are all live plants in all my tanks. For some reason they all grow like weeds without ferts or co2. All have good lighting though.
