140 setup

[ortiz_02]

im currently setting up a 140g 72x19x24, i was thinking about getting two filtar xp3's for my tank
my stock will be something like this
3x texas cichlids (already have)
2x tilapia zilli(i think) (already have)
2x eclipse catfish (already have)
2x green terror cichild's (going to buy)
1x red oscar (maybe)
will the filtration be enough for this stock?
and what other suggestions about fish or filtration do you recommend?
with the filtration i really wanna go with something not to expensive thats why i kinda think the xp3's are a good choice bcuz of the price and bcuz i have read from several threads that they are a good reliave filtration system
thank you in advance

u will need more then 2 Xp3s. ur stock list is a bit much, i would take away before even considering adding more.

if u can, i would go with 2 FX5s instead of the xp 3s.

what if i add another xp3 down the road, ones the fish start getting some size rite now they are around 3-4inches long

any one else like to suggest something else?

I think sting is nuts. 2 FX5s are totally unnecessary.

will 2 cascade1000 be ok for my setup?
