              Stocking seems a little heavy but with all that filtration and lots of water changes you may be able to make it work.

              What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

                Looks good man.

                Isn't it funny how CA & SA's can make a big tank look not that big?

                          cool, i am gunna have to go check it out:)

                          btw, thats alot of really large growing cichlids, even for that sized tank, your gunna need to upgrade to atleast a 8x2x2 240g when those sevs hit full size.
                          between the sevs, oscar, gt, jd, texas, and nic, yer looking at 17 cichlids that will all reach atleast 10"tl, with the the jd and gt will reach atleast 12"tl, and the oscar as big as 17"tl.
                          then the rtc will reach atleast 3 feet tl, and the bruno cat atleast 2 feet tl.
                          also, the phantoms and sfp will all reach around 10+".

                          thats alot of monsters,lol

                          on second thought i would consider atleast a 8x4x2 500g, with some monster filtration!

                          would look sweet with some natural sunken logs, and sword plants:)

                              I actually like the somewhat darkness of the tank. that was what I was going for with the black tank and black background. as far as upgrading...I know that fish get big, but this will last for a while anyways. All these guys were in my 75 for at least 6months. I do daily 50% water change to all my tanks. This tank has been going for almost 3 weeks now, and I have seen no signs of things getting backed up.
