i would say yes but its a little creepy lol. i want some pics but cant get anything decent. currently theres only top view as the glass got knocked and started pissing water. so when the extension is built on, we are putting a 12 foot by 2.5 foot acrillic viewing window at the front (30mm thick) then because the thing is lined with pond liner, gonna move the fish out into a holding tank, drain the tank, knock down the division, render it, pond paint it, then line it with rubber. once thats done, gonna install everything back in, plumb it all (3 6x4x4foot connected ponds filled with bio rios, foam and the like). then decorate it, mostly bogwood and big river stones, gravel etc. Got some plant pots ive made up so that they can be completely hidden but the rays and cichlids cant dig em up. Plant some big amazon swords etc. Fill it, run it for 3 days (bring it up to heat with a pond heater then the room will heat it afterwards). then the gourami will go back in. the rays will follow in a week or two, then the bass the following week. then nothin new for 5-6 weeks and then slowly add my green terrors, argentae, nics and convicts after another 2-3 weeks, gonna stick in a pair of each of these species (all crenacichla) rio tapojas 'cobra', marmorata, johanii and my xingus. Eventually i hope to end up with 2 pairs of peacock bass and the other cichla can then be sold. would love to move my dovii in, but both males are complete dicks to be honest. they each have their own 8x3x3 tanks
