Well, isn't it 5 feet long? You can add something like a high fin no?
6 feet actually. And i'm just not extremely fond of and dont need a big pleco or catfish really. Though i'm not opposed to the synodontis!

You can do a synodontis acanthomias, get to be roughly 1 foot long and have forked barbels, google some pics about it, you will love it!
Two 150 watt heaters one at either end is more than sufficient. Heaters only have so many on and off cycles before they stop working. So its best to have fewer or a lower watt heater that will stay on longer than ones that are constantly blinking off and on. I would spend the little extra and get colbalts.
Fill all the media basket but one with ceramic rings and fill the empty one with poly-fill to polish the water. Don't waste you money or biological filter space on stuff like purigen.
Gotcha. I'll check out the heater prices at my LFS. Do you know if the Via Aqua quartz heaters are any good? I found a deal for a 300 watt one for only $18. And is polyfill just filter floss? And why not Carbon or Ammonia Remover?
