I've preferred the river flow in my 20s and 29s too. If you get some fish upset about it you can try splitting half front/half rear but that might be complex on your rack. Fish room is looking good though

Had a great visit fish-geeking with @sir_keith. Traded a few crypts for a couple of Julidochromis ornatus.
That was fun. These two Julies are showing definite signs of pairing up; I hope that works out. And thanks for the plants; they look great.

Cleaned out the 60g and drilled a 1in overflow. I had a J tube HOB that I modified to mount like a DIY. Just need to snag a flexible drain line to finish.

Drain into a temporary bucket sump.

I scored a pink flamingo crypt a couple weeks ago. Starting to get new growth.

I finally ran a perimeter drain line for the auto water change system. It collects the water from the 260g and delivers it to the corner drain. This should help lower the humidity in the room.

Traded 120 juvenile and subadults rainbow cichlids to the Wet Spot. Picked up 3 Cory similis, a N. Transvestites pair, 3 J. Regani and 4 J. Ornatus. I stopped into Pet Works on the way home and picked up 6 more mini orcas too.
Quite small less that an inch I think
I think this is a male. Note the end of the anal fin.

One of the 55g had a broken center brace so I removed the trim and euro braced instead. Painting the back too.

After you paint the back, cover it in a layer of packing tape. It only takes 5-10 minutes and you'll never scratch it. Side bonus is if you decide to change colors most of the paint will come off when peeling the tape.

Undecided on which light to use.
The Fluvial is not as bright.
The Finnex is uncontrollable.
Fluval light
Finnex looks better on the 140g.

No N. Transvestites spawning for me. Male killed the female

Installed Thursday last week.
Very cool video. I just love the Silver Dollar tank!
