Got the tank all setup today after weeks of waiting. After attempting to go with playground sand I ended up changing my mind. I am not able to do it outside and I found that too much went into the drains. So, I went with CaribSea Torpedo Beach sand. This sand size is absolutely perfect! Picked 40lbs up at the fish store along with some rock for only .80/lb. Filters and python are coming in this afternoon and will be filling it up tonight. Have a look and tell me what you think. Sorry about the glare.

So far, so good, and I like your choice of substrate. Are you going with a fishless cycle?

No I am going to pick up some fish in the next day or two and cycle it that way. I know not the choice of some, but better for me....

After that going with a mix of cichlids, still havn't narrowed it down to an exact stock.

I hear ya, there's enough information here to do it successfully.

Love me some cichlids!
