OK so Im working on a project, this will be my second aquarium, i have a 40 right now with some mixed fish and a Mississippi map turtle. I would like to make this a 60 Gallon Native tank utilizing locally caught fish (Adirondacks.) What are everyone's thoughts? Lighting, Filtration... any suggestions anyone has would be greatly appreciated!

I'd just watch craigslist for good deals on used equipment. Can't afford to be too picky, though I did just shell out for a $100 LED lighting system. It's the Current Freshwater Satellite Plus model and seems to be the best value out there for a nice mid-range lighting system.

I'd probably try to find a used sump or canister filter. If money is no issue, then pick up a new Fluval 306 at the pet store.
