5 feet chiclids tank - **pics inside**

[ZEROSKULL]

How old? = This tank is matured ( 3 months old)
What fish? = mostly chiclids family , 5 common plecs 2 cray fish.
Lighting = DIY hanging canopy with twin head fluorescent - just made it few days ago. Planning to get 5k watts or 7k watts later.
What do they eat? = Hikari chiclid complete - sinking pallets (Highly recommended) and Hikari Bio-Gold -floating palltes (i think) , Hikari bottom feeders (for common plec - i actually forgot the name ) Hikari frozen Blood worms (twice a week) and also live shrimp
Favourite fish = got to be the Frontosa. I have 4 of them altogther.
Filteration? = Eheim - I already changed the magnetic components inside ( more than 10 years old already and still good) good investment
Water change = 30% once a week.

I dont know exactly how but i think the food from Hikari (chiclids complete) makes them less territorial. It was stated at the back of the packaging though.

Thanks for the nice comments

No one going to comment on how ridiculasly over stocked the tank is (5 common plecs ), especially since it has only been running 3 months?

This is how NOT to keep fish if you want a trouble free healthy tank.
