looking to set up a new 200g tank for my cichlids that have outgrown 75. any suggestions for filtration? other things i should no moving up to this size tanks? thanks
 
I filter my 220g with a Fluval FX5. They're a bit expensive if you buy them new, but you can't beat their gph (without building a sump, that is). Good luck with your tank. :)
 
If its not drilled, get a FX5 and ill say do a 70g marineland bio-wheel HOB just for good measures. That should keep the water very CRISPY!!!

if you go with an fx5, buy em from rich from infinite aquatics... a vendor here on mfk... he sells em used for a really good price.
