Use sand, Fluval FX 5, and two AquaClear 110s...
. Thats what I have in my tank, and it works superbly. If you can afford it though, get two of the FX 5's...they are crazy kewl filters!! Love them!! Welcome to MFK!! I know a VERY hott young lady that lives in Melbourne, so you should consider yourself lucky to live in the same area as her!! LoL!
