I just ordered 2 3'' Black Arowanas and 2 2'' Thinbar Datnoids and I am having a hard time deciding which tank to use as a growout. The 50 gallon would be filtered by a Aquaclear 70 and a Fluval 305. The 75 gallon would be filtered by 2 Aquaclear 110's. Do you guys think these setups have too strong of a current for the baby fish? Is the 75 gallon too big for the baby fish to find their food? I am stuck on this decision. I like the looks of my 50 gallon better. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
I forgot to mention I also have a Marineland Penguin 350 filter I could also add on to the 50 gallon. I also have 2 Maxi- Jet 1200 powerheads. With this equipment, what's the best combo for a growout?
