2x Fluval G6 systems, It's PRICEY but I love it. All my tanks 125G ~ 150G equipped with 2x systems along with HoB filters (optional because I have few extra HoB lay around).

Yuki how do you like those G6 systems? I've heard mixed reviews.
It's run extremely quiet, you barely hear anything even you right at it, mechanical filter clean easy and fast, reusable and durable, huge bio media chamber (all 3 baskets are bio media section), chemical chamber can be another bio media section if you don't use carbon or purigen (I put pond matrix in there), display alert when things need/due for clean up are helpful. I don't have any problems with these Fluval G6 yet, I got them a bit over 2 years, its works flawlessly and I have to say my money well spend on those filters. :)

I used to have (2) 125's and I ran 2 Eheim Classic 2217's and One Aquaclear 110. I had a decent stock in the tanks and it was OK but nothing to write home about.
