Setting up bridged 10G tanks.. take a look at my plans
Fish:
African Cichlid Shell-Dwellers Beaslbob Build (if I have this correct): Peat Moss (soaked and spread in the bottum 1/2 inch depth) Sand (Eco complete Cichlid 1/2 inch depth) Gravel (Crushed Coral or Eco Complete Cichlid 1/2-1 inch depth) Plants: TBD - I found a few that would be good in a 10G Tank but still looking) Moss (I read that shell dwellers can or do use this to cover the enterance to their shell homes) Decor: Burried clear tube tunnel Shells Slate (stacked to help protect plants and provide caves hiding spots) Small Drift Wood cave/tunnel (possible plant anchor) Lighting: Have not looked into lighting for planted 10G - Suggestions? Filter: Starting I have spare power filters I can use while cycling, preparing the tanks Plants should eventually be taking care of the tanks once setup Circulation: Small Powerheads or power filters with little to no filter media Heater: Undecided if there should be a heater in each tank or one that is able to support both (all 3) CO2: DIY CO2 Yeast Fermentation

Re: Setting up bridged 10G tanks.. take a look at my plans
Dont know about cichlids,so cant say yay or nay.Sounds neat though.
I believe the beaslebob formula is correct. Decor looks good. Many have used a full incandescent hood with CFL bulbs screwed in.They seem to work great. If the tanks are seperate,then you will need a heater for them all.A 50 watt adjustable heater in each will do just fine. CO2 works well.My advice though,have a check valve and use silicon tubing.Airline gets hard and doesnt work as well. All in all seems like a very nice build.Good luck,and I will check in on the progress.
