In the process of moving some to a second growout that just finished cycling. I'll post pix when I get a chance.

Opinions on my new growout landscaping please. thinkin of scattering a few more black stones randomly on the outside and maybe sprinkle some small stones. I'd liek to keep it clean since the tank will hold rays.

Since my last update:
-sold 4 orinos
-sold 2 peruvian monos
-lost my 2 spot ocell

All cichla, except the monos and smaller orinos, have been moved to the the same tank. The tank they were in before is getting it's sump revamped and is only housing the arowana that killed my ocell :irked: at the moment.

Teaser Pix! More to come!

I think my cichla are french cuz I think i see tongue in the last two pix! :eek:
