    Love it! That design would hold the weight of a Bus. The fish mix is awesome hope it works out. I thought of trying to mix cichlids like that but was afraid it wouldn’t work out. If it were me the background would be black. It helps hide the heaters, hoses etc since they are black. To each his own! Enjoy.
