Driftwood, Live Plants, White Gravel, some caves, ... That is all I can think of! haha, Live plants because mine really liked them, though, some say their chiclids tear them to threds... Mine never have touched them?

so long as it doesn't break down or leech chemicals into the water, most anything will work...

there's tons of random sh*t in there, i certainly did not limit myself to any one theme. the intention was merely to create as many cave-like hiding places as possible for the various cichlids contained therein.

 

[psychofish]

why does everone say white rock???

 

[chiefkyle]

You want some ideas?

Here is my 125 with two diferent setups. Take a note here. Use REAL Java Moss if your doing a Java planted tank. That [email protected] I fished out of the creek (attached to rocks), won't live in a home aquarium. Still have the damn hairy stuff in my filters.

 

[WorldBelow07]

those are amazing setups!! nice as hell

I really like chiefkyle's setup...all you need is a background and your tank would look pimp. Here's my cichlid setup.
