Full African Cichlid Tank Setup - My 6ft Lake Malawi Aquarium

In this video I show my full 6ft Lake Malawi African Cichlid setup, which I have in a Waterbox Clear 7225 - it has been running for 10 months now. I run through every part of the setup (stocking, lighting, lids, filtration, heating, substrate) for anyone who is interested in setting up something similar! Hopefully you can take bits and pieces from this, and it might give you some ideas on what you could use :)

Also! In exciting news, we recently had some huge growth on the channel, and reached 1000 subscribers!! Hopefully this video will be a good one to welcome everyone who is new to the channel. If there is anything you would like to see on this channel, please let me know!

If you enjoy this video I would love for you to give it a like, leave a comment and let me know what you think, and please subscribe! It helps so much and means a lot.
