I just set up my 100 gallon and connected 2 Fluval 305's to it, Will this be good enough filtration to keep it all clean? This is the biggest tank I've had, just upgraded from a 55 gallon! :headbang2
 
I currently have about 6 cichlids, 2 oscars, 2 convicts, 2 bala sharks and 2 plecos. biggest fish are a 7 inch bala and a 14 inch pleco.
Would that be good how many more fish can i add or is that too many?
 
Wow that's a lot of messy fish that get big....I would maybe add a hob filter to that equation as 2 305's might not cut it with that stick list... I see large frequent water changes in your future if you don't upgrade

I see lg. W/c's either way ....that prob. Gonna be enough filtration to keep the fish healthy...and since your gonna have to do BIG w/c's any way keep it like it is for a little while and YOU be the judge on more filtration:-)

Haha yeah its been clear so far but this is the first week its been stocked. I thought 2 305s would be able to cut it but i have a large hob from my old tank i can probably add on if it starts getting dirty. thanks for the input!
