yeah man, i think that would be fine, stuff the fx5 with bio-media, the fluval 405 with floss, and the eheim with carbon
thats a lot of water movement

do you already have these filters? does your tank have a built in overflow? if you have a built in overflow i would suggest running a DIY sump. I myself just aquired a 180g 6x2x2 and built my own sump. it only cost me about $125. i went to big lots and bought a 30g bin and 3 containers. some pot scrubbers and pillow stuffing. drilled holes in the containers and bought a 2200gph pump on ebay for 70 bux. ran a pipe up to the return nozzle and was done with it. its simple and affective and im pretty sure all those canisters aren't cheap.
cheers for the replies!
yea i already have these filters running on my 6x2x2,theres alot of water movement and the tanks clear but i still wonder if i need more filtration.The fish in the tank are ,,,4 large silver sharks ranging from 7inch to 12 ich, 2 large tinfoil barbs, 1 large severum and a syndontis catfish.

I have no experience with canisters so i dont know if thats enough. if anything you could throw some HOB filters like a AC110 or EMP400 for some good mechanical filtration.
