A little advice needed!

[Illbuyourcatfish]

Hi guys, I was looking at my setup today and I'm thinking I'm running too many filters on my 180. Ive got two xp3's a 405 and an fx5. Any suggestions on if I need all these running? If you had to remove one which would it be? I thought maybe id just reduce clutter. Any advice?

I guess a lot of it depends on how much stock you have in your tank if its over-kill or not???

Its my bichir tank, so 14 bichir

Then maybe its not over-kill... i mean with 14 messy eaters in the tank, it maybe a good idea you have as much filtration as you do...

but thats just my personal opinion...

id say keep it...and throw a topwater fish in there=P

Your not using that much electricity with even all of those running. A few bucks a month. Do you need them...doubt it. Unless the bichirs are agitated by the current I'd keep them. I would get another tank though, hell you could get another 180 and still have OK filtration on both.
