Default First venture into Tanganyika setup

Just starting my new venture. Manage to get a few pointers from the old birds.
Converted one of my 3footer to a tanganyika biotope.

1st try.


Not satisfied with the first results, decided to add more rocks and some coral sands.


Then added 2pcs of leleupi today.


More livestock to come in another week or 2.
Will update again when I introduce the next batch of livestock.
Thanks for viewing.

My favourite type of setups! >> S0~S3 fine coral sand with black pebbles/boulders contrasting the colour of sand. Nice!

And also I luv leleupis.....always underrated but nice bright orange to outshine the others, and good for community tank.

I'm just a small time keeper, there are still others that haven't showhand yet.
I followed ur advise on either the leleupi or buescheri, end up taking the yellows looks more striking in a white tank.

I actually bought some white rocks with holes( a few pcs of them ) before I googled the images of lake tanganyika biotope. Decided to go ahead with black boulders after that.
Those leleupi's are just the sidekicks, main inhabitants will be revealed soon.
