I decided to let y'all know about our current African cichlid tank setup. It's a 56g column so there could be more hiding places. Black sand/gravel bottom. Now for the fish:
1 5inch male arutus
1 3inch male arutus
2 jewel cichlids (dark red and vibrant red)
1 4 inch male Johanni
1 3 inch female snow white (albino)
1 fry (beloved to be the Johanni and albino's)

Oh and I left out 3 very important fish

Thing 1 & Thing 2 (common? Plecos)
And Bushy, our first bristle nose pleco

I would love nothing more than to show pics but unfortunately I'm stuck on an iPhone right now as my hubby is installing a water cooling system on his desktop and won't let me use his MacBook pro. I will see if I can't post pics soon though.
