Title: Cunningham Cichlids Fishroom Tour
Post by: jcunningham0295 on December 28, 2012, 11:02:42 AM
Here are a few videos of my fishroom.  The camera would only let me record twelve minute segments.  Will have to fix that for next time.

Thanks.  I haven't got the courage yet to try them.  Would love to get a group of Tropheus duboisi or Tropheus sp. "Ikola".

 Wow awesome set up. I cant believe you manage to keep that many tanks that clean I have a hard time with my few! 

Is that reflextex that you have on the back and sides of your tanks?

Only made it through 7 minutes on the first video and I'm already impressed.

When you're ready to get rid of one of the male intermedius let me know.

Yes, this is just my temporary setup and the room is not really heated so I used reflextex on the bottom sides and back to hope keep the heat in and miminize the time the heaters need to run.  My original plan is to finish the area in the back you see in video three where the ten tanks are and have around 65 to 80 tanks.

Thanks Jeff.  I will be ready to get rid of one of them for sure around auction time.  Hopefully you get to make it through the rest of them.

Thanks for sharing Josh.  I made it through all three.  That was one nice Ngara Flametail.  Maybe my next house I will have room to have bigger tanks in the fish room, for now I will settle for fish corner.

I built a three level rack to hold 8 20's and 4 29's, but I had to sit the tanks sideways to fit into the 5-foot space.

Hey Josh,

I am Very impressed. I also second the cleanliness of the tanks and fish room. Your fish room will make a nice addition to the fish room tour.

I am mostly impressed with your Flame Tail male you picked up. Best one I have seen.
