I am afraid the Fahaka may get stuck behind it at some point. It is thin with a lot of branches and spans the entire width of the tank.

Those cat photos are so funny! Licking their chops in anticipation...
Very nice tank setup, too.

Thank you! I thought they were funny too
I was sitting my the tank taking the pics when the cats came. They always seem to be hanging around when I am doing water changes or working the tanks. Maybe they are hoping another fish jumps out!
How large should the cave be? Depth and height?

Xray!!
I don't know what the turning radius of a Fahaka is, especially at 18"

Sorry J-P
Are you still going to look for a fahaka? I am sure one would love to be in your tank

I'll chalk it up to bad timing.
I checked Menagerie also .. not a bad shop but they had a Dog Face and a Valentini. If my SW was set up I would have scooped that Valentini.
Big Al's Scarborough had sickly GSPs and a Ceylon.
So it is back to the waiting game..
