Hi guys, what kind of filtration should I buy or make for 370gal.tank tall 22"?
There will be swimming a pair of rays P14 about 12" ...
I thought that canister filter Fluval FX6 should be ok - 3500liter/per hour
What you guys think? Any other advice?

Big sump with a big pump.
You should try for 8 to 10 times turn over.
A sump will give you better options and more room for more surface area.
FX6, you would need 3 or 4.

I have a 900 liter / 238 gallon with two P. leopoldi at about 35-40 cm. There i run two Fluval FX5 (3600 l/h), 4 Eheim internals (1200 l/h) and one Tunze 8000 l/h. I could run no less, and i feed mostly "light" foods.

I use all FX's. 6 tanks, 1400 gallons tied together on one system. I'm running 13 Filters in total all spread out in the 6 tanks. I like individual filters as opposed to a large sump as I can easily separate off a tank if need be by turning off a valve and not worry about filtration.
