125 filtration

[sweetdreams12477]

I will be getting a 125 gallon tank in about 4 weeks want to see what will be the best filtration for this size of tank.

This will be the new home for my 2 oscars. At this time I am not putting anything else with them.

Thank you in advance.

if you get into sumps and they are too difficult a strong can and a couple aquaclear 110's should over do it just keep up on your maintenence .... sumps are just more efficient and a stronger all around filtration system...alot of work and time are invested into them

You have know idea what you are talking about. Sumps are easily maintain with very minimal time invested. If sumps have any drawback it is that they take up alot of space, but even then that only adds to your water volume.
