![]() More like 200 Cardinals. That'd be sweet. Cichlids are pretty awesome too though, I have considered setting up an African tank again...but only for a few moments of lapse.

![]() Then throw in a few indian flasher barbs and a school of lemons as well, then a few cool plecos, plants all across the bottom and a giant piece of driftwood, and it would look stellar! Haha.
Actually I will be getting a very large piece of driftwood for this thing hopefully! Today's progress: First layer of mud and some dry plumbing. Also got partial wall framed where it will connect to the doorway. Other side will get done later.... I need this tank running first. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() To do tomorrow: - Try to find some Tahitian moon sand in town. Its black, and thats what I want. According to the 'technical specs', the copper slag sand I picked up should be usable (it does not contain copper), but many people (though without proof) are saying it shouldnt be used. I think its too fine for my tank and the next size up is too coarse. I also think these grains might be too sharp. - Pick up a bit a few more plumbing pieces I am still missing - Actually get the water supply line started this time - Second layer of plaster - More dry plumbing Hoping to have a pretty productive day but I have to squeeze my christmas shopping in tomorrow, haha. Oops. Thanks for reading! Cheers, Chris
