Filtration for my new 900 liter tank?

[Najt]

I wonder about the filtration for my 900l tank, I will have this tank for cichlas

 

[Najt]

I want the filtration inside the tank maby behind a btn module or something, I just wonder what kind of pump i should use and what to have as media?

several large sponge filters running on powerheads would be 1 option ...there are several other options including interior overflow

A large sump or go with closed loop system.

should it be alright to put just one header that pumps like 3000l/h behind the btn module with only sphongle media inside? or did i need to put more pumps, should be so nice if i could hide everything so nothing is seen when look into the tank

intake on the bottom of the module and outtake on the top of the module? should i add anything other than sphongle inside the filtration system?

for air i thinking of going with an airpump into airstones.

fx5 is outside filtration and i want inside aquarium filtration

Think u will need more then a 3000 l/h as that's only 3 times cycle an hour. Should be at least double or even better triple that.

i found a pump that pumps 5000l/h, i will put blue filters with diffrent size of holes and then bioballs, should the bio balls be last in the filter chain before it goes back to the aquarium?
