My new/used 125 gallon, 6ft long mixed cichlids of some sort. One day I will figure it out?!?

There was probably 30 or 40 Gallons worth of rock subtrate  in the tank. When I got home and refilled it I only put about 10 gallons worth of substrate back in. I filled the tank, Waited a few hours and test the nitrate. It was around 30 o-O I feel like I need to do a water change already LOL But thank you :)

Looks like a perfect fit for that spot 8)

Looks nice, I like the placement.  (Remember it's there when stumbling through in the dark tho :P )

It's just kinda of out there in the middle of no where, which kinda scares me because its on a metal stand. I wanted it where I could look at it though. Going to have a custom wood stand built but will be a couple months. Hopefully if I'm ever fumbling through the dark I will hit the couch first.

Looks good.  You can look at your fish, and they will all gather to your corner begging for food like little dogs.   "We're starving here"'.  Fish have the sad puppy eye look down pat.

By the couch like that is the perfect spot. 

Looks good.

All the fish settled in and fattening up?
