ok i know its not an aquarium but a terrarium but does this not scream malawi setup!

check it out it makes me think of cliff dwellings. its an amazing DIY project. i could see all sorts in here from malawis and so on in the fish side to gerbils, reptiles and even a chinchilla if you made the caves bigger. or a tenerec! i just love it the work to sculpt the rock work is astounding!

 

I've done almost the exact same cave/rock terrace setup for a customer wanting a Malawi tank....Sadly he has lost interest in it and the tank with finished sculpture is standing in the garage. Never been near water yet.

Had you been in Cape Town I woulda sold it to you for the price of the tank only because its been so long.
