I decided to sell my tropheus colony to another hobbyist, as I needed to reduce the number of tanks in my house. It's been hard giving proper care to three tanks for the past several months. The tropheus went to a good home where they will gets lot of TLC.

My husband and I reworked the large tank in the living room which previously held the tropheus, and moved the inhabitants of the kitchen tank into it this weekend. We had to move the living tank out from the wall a little so I could fit the Emperor HOB on it. It also runs one Eheim Classic 2217 with a spray bar.

The eels are hand fed mysis shrimp, and the rest of the crowd gets NLS, so this should enable the gobies to continue to live in this tank without fear of getting too much meaty food. I may try and work an airstone into the arrangement somehow.

This tank is very long and narrow (6 feet long and about 90 gallons).
Inhabitants are: 3 clown loaches, 1 aulonacara hansbaenschi, 5 petricola cats, 2 elipsifer eels, 1 julidochromis regani, 1 neolamprologus brichardi, 1 leleupi, 4 gobies (have had them about a year now) 1 black calvus, and 1 tretocephalus.

It looks good PoohBear. I really like that look of a long, narrow tank. I need that kind so I can actually reach the bottom without getting wet.

Great looking job, Kelly!

Those rocks are really piled up high!

How do the peacocks and the tangs get along?

There is one peacock, and he is a full-size male. He is the largest fish in the tank with the exception of one of the elipsifer eels who is longer than he is. The peacock gets along great with everyone, and no one seems to mind him much.

This tank is relatively peaceful as far as cichlids go. The only fish who have the possibility of breeding in here are the petricolas and the gobies, and neither of those protect their young, so that reduces a lot of aggression.

The fish with the most attitude in the tank is the singleton leleupi. Good thing she's small! When the community was younger, she used to boss around the other fish. She has since stopped doing that as she is the smallest and they have stopped running from her. She enjoys chasing any fish that will run from her. If it doesn't run from her, she doesn't know quite what to do and soon loses interest. Now that I combined the Tang community with the gobies and clown loaches, her new hobby is bothering gobies. In a way this is not so bad because it keeps the four gobies distracted from bothering each other. The leleupi was also trying to bully clown loaches, but she realized within the first day that they were paying her absolutely no mind at all and she's stopped. I'm sure she'll get bored of gobies in a few days too. They're now hanging out on the upper rocks where the leleupi doesn't cruise so much.

Nice tank PoohBear. I just setup a 125 for my fronts. I will post a pic when it clears.
I like the long tanks like this. I have a 100 gal that is made similar.

I like the way you placed your rocks in this.
