About Yourself: I'm fairly new to keeping African Cichlids. It took me a while to get a nice "stack" with the limited space in a 55g. I've laid eggcrate underneath the sand to give it a more sound structure and to protect from any rock slides, from pesky diggers. I worked really hard on it, so thanks for checking it out!
