2 fx5's for 250-300gal ?

well ideally i only want ONE pump to run my sump system right, unless i have 2 return lines but even then thats 500bucks for a pair of mag2400's, but im alittle worried about there may not be enough bio media with a 110gal stock tank with pot scrubbies in it ..... basically the idea is from the overflows in each corner will drain down to a 3gallon paint pail for a pre filter (same idea as filter socks) then into the sump which is 110ga stock tank, which is full of pot scrubbies, and then i will have either 1 or 2 fx5's sucking water out of the sump and back into the sump to polish water and get any small particles outta the water, and then the pump will suck the wate rfrom the sump and then back up into the tank through a spray bar hopefully if i can plumb that way ... i could always keep a tray of fluval bio max in each fx5 if i ran both or just 2 trays in one and third basket with coarse and fine pads ... i also have 4litres of seachem pond matrix i can use as well, unless for some crazy wild reason im able to find a BIG tank and regular sump that will do what i want pump and all included i'll likely buy it much easier lol
