AWESOME BRO!!! I see now why Mitch liked it so much, I can only imagine what it would look like in person. Those calvus sure are coloring up nicely as well as the others. How big are they now? Weren't they real small when you got them?

Looks good Jimmy Wink

Nice tank and some great looking fish. I like the way the black sand makes your fish stand out.

Thanks everybody. It is alot differant watching this tank than the 210 with all the giant haps. The litle firecraker leulupi (7 fish) are really fun to watch.
I also have a reverse trio of full grown Leulupi in there too. I got a pair of Greenwoodochromis christy at RMCA auction for 10 bucks, What a steal!

Jeff I will post the progression pics (short version) in DIY later.
