New Mbuna tank
Posted: Sun May 17, 2015 8:50 pm
Hi all
One of our existing clients wanted to redo his tank when he made a new cabin and wanted something colorful.He also was very specific that the fish needed to be a bit large so that ruled out tetras and other livebearers.We showed him mbunas and he immediately approved.Off lately we have noticed a lot and lot of people are inclined to keeping african cichlids.Could be the slightly high stocking density or the explosive colors but these are slowly and steadily turning into a stample favourite. A simple rockwork using a couple of large pieces and a few smaller onces for natural texture and white sand completed the decor.Eheim 2217 is used for filtration.Also we have used a new type of light which are ultra slim and give a slight blue hue to the tank.
As always we would love to know what you think of the tank!
regards
Hamza
