In this video I show the full process of building a rock bank aquascape for my African Cichlids! I have a variety of colourful Lake Tanganyikan cichlids that I'm planning to grow out in the tank. These type of fish love hard scapes, as they don't require any plants. The peninsula design of the tank makes it perfect to create a rocky bank up one end for these fish who love to go in and out of the caves..

This scape was a HUGE process as I had to remove the previous riverbank scape that Jason from Australian Biotopes created. Although I absolutely loved that scape, and appreciated what Jason did SO much, I explain in the video the reason why I went for the change. I really hope you enjoy the video and hopefully love the new scape too!

I'd love to hear your feedback!!
What do you think of the new scape? :D

I'm really excited to grow these guys out and see how they go together.
