Well after 9 months of having an empty tank at the office, I've re-started my cichlid tank at work.
It's my first time trying a heavily rock-scaped freshwater tank. I stole a few lessons I've learned from my reef at home and tried to apply them to this setup. The cichlids seem to really enjoy the crevices and I think it's doing well to keep their aggression to a dull roar.

That long view is probably my favorite from a pure 'fishkeeping' standpoint. From the front it looks a little bit cramped, but down that long view you can see that they have a very nice water column to motor around in and then dive down in the rocks if need be. It also cuts back hard towards the center of the tank to open it up even more through there.
I'm excited about it, it seems like it's working quite nicely.
