    LMAO ..Nice Head board ..
    Nice set up too . Looks like you have a ton of hiding places for them. Is it open at the back as well ? Looks like a great breeding tank. Thanks for putting the picks up of the little fish as well .

    Does make a rather nice headboard. That wall is pretty cool and it does appear to be centered, maybe not , cant tell lol. Very nice setup! thanks for sharing

    Thank's, ya it’s my bedroom and ya it makes a pretty sweet headboard I started with a 30 gallon on the night stand, then thought how can I make this bigger… gives the room a nice glow at night, and has built in black light/moon light's.

    And yes it is open on the back, there's roughly 3-4" from the rock to the front glass, in the back it's only about 2" from the glass.

    There are ALOT of fish in that tank, but so much rock work that in the morning you can turn on the lights and have trouble seeing more then 2-3! Here are a few shot's of the tenant’s.





    This guy’s not a Mbuna, but he’s a tough little vic who lives with them






    Ok, I think that’s enough lol
