That tank you built is FANTASTIC!!!! I love the background! also the
write-up! I have an acrylic tank, I only have two port holes, so I
could never put a background like that into it...

Thanx.

Did you read the horror story that went with the background ? That gave
me a hard time.

I'm glad to report that the fish have been a lot more visible today.

man I felt bad for ya when I read that story but you prevailed and it looks
great. If you have Mbunas in that tank then they will spend most of their
time hiding in the caves, that is just the nature of the fish. I have got
around this somewhat and what I did was get 6 P. saulosi juveniles. I put
them in a 10 g tank with no place to hide. Every day these little guys would
wait for dinner and it got to where they would get excited as soon as I
walked into the room When they were big enough I moved them into the larger
tank with my "hiding" Mbunas and they act like dither fish. Now all the fish
come out to see what the big commotion is when I walk in the room and my
little buddies the saulosi are making that possible.
