Hi! New to the hobby......we've got a 125 gallon tank with a Fluval FX6 filter. I just wanted to check if you think this is enough filtration. We plan on a moderately stocked tank, maybe around 20 - 25 Peacocks.
 
That would be heavily stocked if all male and OK if you are doing a single species peacock tank with 3m:22f.

I like 8X to 10X GPH so what is the GPH of your device?
 
I have two Aquaclear 110s on my 135. Five frontosas six to ten inches. I'd get a second filter if I were you, even a small one, just for safety sake in case one quits. Not worth the risk going with just one.
