More Fish lol!

Some Wild Import Cyprichromis Microlipedotus Kavala and Enantiopus Sp. Kilesa might go in the 75.
If the WC Petrochromis Red Bulu point that I am getting are not yet full grown they might go into the 75 until I figure how to reseal the 180G acrylic.

The new rack system running a Sump will be a grow out tanks for my mbuna and frontosa babies.

Personally, I wouldn't "waste" a 75 for the kilesa. They are sand sifters and stay on bottom, so I used a 33 long for mine. Just my opinion and tanks available to me to use.

I have a box of 24 coming New Stand Canopy and a rack system in the works 690297

So my Kilesa would be the bottom dweller and the box of Microlipedotus would be my top dweeler

Viola! I am almost done with the rack system. I just need to plumb it, add the WET/DRY Part of the sump. BTW i found a tank 48"x12"x12" which is a perfect fit at the bottom for my sump. Will keep y'all posted.

Next time you go to petco or petsmart, try to tip one over!
See if you are successful. There is science behind the design, otherwise these petstores won't be using them.
