tazcowboy Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hello everyone, I am expanding my Fresh water tanks. I currently have a 75 gallon community tank with Tetras, Sail Fin Mollies, Garamis, Hatchets, Flying Foxes, swords, platies and a few other species. Sorry I don't know them all since my son likes buying fish he thinks are cool. They all get along so all is great. I just purchased a 117 gallon (custom) that I'm going to set up with Africans. I see there is a forum for that so I'm going to be reading lot's in the next few days and hope to get some landscaping ideas. I am planning on dual Fluval FX5 for lots of filteration and lots of fish. I am thinking of a landscape of slate (flat rocks, not sure of the kind) all stacked up with long and short rocks alternating with open space with the short rocks, I hear that plants are going to be a challange since Africans like to dig but I might try anyways and if they don't work out I can put them in the community tank. Looking forward to getting involved with this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Welcome to the forum! You should check out some of the African display tanks at some of the LFSs and see what you like. There's some really good examples out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIJester Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Welcome to AA, sounds like an amazing first tank - the second should be just as great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
