I'm setting up a new 110 tall tank that I'd like to have cichlids in. It came with a Eheim Pro 2 which is rated for 90 gallons, and so I think I'm undersized two ways, by capacity and the fact I'll have cichlids (planning on 25-30). I have a Whisper 60 filter to go along with it, but 1) it's noisy, and 2) I don't think it's enough.
So, I want to add another canister filter and lose the Whisper. Looking at other Eheim Pro 2's on Ebay, but also considering their Pro 3 G160, which new is going for $220 with media. Something I thought to mention is that I do have a lot of holey rock in the tank and some large fake plants. I also have two powerheads to position in there once I see where stuff collects.
Advice on path ahead?
