I gave the filtration a overhaul. The canisters are gone and I have completed my insulated sump. I am now running 3 overflows that feed the bucket filters which are sealed into the esky lid. These are filled with a mix of Aqua clay, ceramic rings and Seachem Matrix. Not shown is the layers of filter floss for mechanical filtration and the drip trays. The water is returned to the tank via 2 x 4500 lph pumps. I now have my heaters in the sump/filter as well.:)

wow i love it lol any plans for filter socks or do you have a plan for cleaning this beast ?
 
No filter socks. I run filter floss with a drip tray above the bio media in the buckets. It is just not shown in the pics. The lids have a larger pipe sealed into them so I can unclip them and slide them up out of the way. It makes it easy to check and change out the filter floss.
