Very nice! What are the dimensions of the tank? I'm pretty sure you have more than enough filtration with 4 Canisters running.
If you don't mind how much did you pay for this setup?

Nice tank! Did you want to use some filters that were laying around or were you going to buy some new ones? If you were planning on getting new filters for it, I'd go with 2 Fluval Fx5 and 2 AC 110. If those were just filters that were laying around, then there's nothing wrong with it.

good deal, great looking clean stand
filtration i would rather go all canister then
2 canisters and 2 ac110
the ac gets dirty quick and require weekly maintenance ( at least mine did in my heavy chiclid tnks) canisters require less maintance and provide the same results (at least in my case)
