Great looking tanks, and really nice choice of fish.

Catfishes aside, those Taenicara look great!

Sometimes i'm using easy-life profite. And some plants i give a extra boost whit some clay balls(?). About the lighting i'm using: 2*36watt, T8 1=Amazone day 2=Special plant. And for the rest you need a lot of patience.

Thnx. I really like them to. The behavior of this small dwarfcichlide is generous to the other occupants. They must be kept in soft water Ph <6, Kh <2, Gh <4.
