    Wow, that was the most beautiful ciklid tank I have ever seen! I have never liked ciklids, apart from dwarf ciklids like rams and apistogrammas, and never liked ciklid tanks. This looks like a paradise island in the sea with the sky all around it 🌅☀️. So light and airy, and the fish like sunbeams from gleaming in the sand and sea. Maybe I can like some ciklids now. Would really like to have a tank like this! So beautiful!

      All of the ranchus died. Exactly the same as my last lot. This time, I made sure to feed them blood worms, duckweed and sinking pellets and they all got buoyancy issues and faded away. Not at the same time but over a few months. Never again. There were zero nitrates in the tank or anything else so I know I did everything right. Just one of those fish. I gave it another shot but that's it now.

    MD, I'm totally with you on the simple on/off of a light. I have ZERO interest in apps where you have to fiddle with colors and all of lighting. I just want a light that comes on with natural sunlight spectrum and be done with it. I have all my lights (simple on/off) on Kasa timers and don't have to fiddle with them at all. I've loved the results.
    BTW, I agree with you about that one type of light making plants look artificial. The green always looks weird to me in that tank, like the plants are that weird shade of green plastic.
